Girlfriend wets the bed?

[Anonymous]

So, recently my girlfriend has been wetting the bed - which I also sleep in with her.
It happened again just last night and a few times this week.
The bedroom gets really damp and smelly because of it and the bedsheets also.
I wake up to the wet part just near my side of the bed.

I've tried talking to her about but she's really embarrassed and feels ashamed - I've tied reassure her that it's okay but it's not working.

Girlfriend wets the bed. Should I be worried? By the way my girlfriend is 22.

She should be seeing a doctor if this is a new occurance as loss of bladder control could be something more serious. It can be embarrassing but keep reassuring her you just care and want to make sure she's ok. Try and limit the frustration if you can
You should also start taking precautions with waterproof mattress protectors or brolly sheets.

[Boorene]

There's either something physically or mentally wrong with her, she should see a doctor before it gets worse. You went about it the right way though, it must be seriously embarrassing for her. I think you should tell her that you are worried about her and that you would like her to get checked out by a doctor to make sure she is okay.

She should see a doctor about it. Just keep being supportive, like you have been. And if you get a waterproof sheet, then cleanup will be a lot easier. All you (or she) will have to do is a quick wipe down and throw on clean sheets. It won't solve the real problem, but it will make the situation much less stressful for both of you.

Yea something is going on with her. Sounds like she's had some sort of trauma and is having nightmares or has a medical problem. She needs to talk to her doctor about it. Adults don't wet the bed. So, while I know she's embarrassed but you have to convince her to talk to her doctor. That's not normal.

[DarthLadyKiller]

That is really sad. It is great you are not judging her for it, that is wonderful, people do have issues and it can be embarrassing but it is up to her to do something about it. She needs to start wearing adult diapers to bed or put those sheets under. If she will do nothing about it, then she has got some hygiene issues you have to address.

Silly question, but is she at least going pee before she goes to bed?

[Asker]

Yeah, she does beforehand.

[truthbeknown]

Time to see the doc.

I'm sure it's something medically wrong. I'm glad you're not totally bothered by it and you're not being a dick about it. 👏 Next time it happens do try to reassure her and make her feel comfortable so that hopefully she feels like talking about it. Don't be worried.

[genericname85]

yes you should be worried. if i was you, i´d try going to a therapist or a physician with her to have that fixed... not only is it nasty but also it´s not good for her psyche (if it´s not already a sign of deeply rootedproblems).
i wouldn´t blame her for it or make her feel bad but i would try to fix it.

[Prettygurl12]

Is she experiencing a stress in her life?

Did something traumatic or major happen recently in her life?

Sometimes major life events or stresses can make someone revert to that time of their life.

[Lopezz1999]

It isn't working, because you know thats a problem that's bothering you. I wouldn't be worried about the bed wetting per se, but her well being instead.

[Tiffany2001]

Well she might have had some type of trauma or she has a bladder problem. I would suggest talking with her about going to see a urologist

[Machiavelli]

See a doctor, something is wrong, so sorry about that. Wish you the best.

[Kejda]

She may have some infection because it causes the blader to malfunction.

[scottyC]

if she is wetting the bed that is a reason to see a doctor. there could be something wrong with the muscles that help hold it in. also reassure her that she's a human and this kind of thing happens to everyone

You should be worried as at 22 either she's scared of something or medically wrong to still be doing that
