i know that not everyone is the same, but this is our experience. my daughter wet her bed almost every night until a new peditrition had her tested for allergies and we took her off dairy. she hasn't wet her bed even once after being off dairy for three months. it's been a wonderful 3 years for her and us.

" Thank you for that comment. We have switched to soy and I do believe our son's bed wetting has improved. Funny thing is, we switched him b/c of our younger son's dairy allergies. We didn't want to buy both milks.

My younger son is 11, and has been a bedwetter and huge cereal eater forever. OMG "

" Hi PumpkinPatch,
Allergies are such a tricky thing to identify. Our peditrition had our kid's blood tested through a company called U.S. Biotech. We had to pay for the test, but it has been well worth it. Our daughter is allergic to dairy, soy and peanuts. It took quite a few months to ween her off all of it. She stopped wetting her bed completely after 3 months, she had seboria on her scalp since she was a toddler it cleared in a week and emotionally/mentally we've seen great improvement. She hasn't wet her bed again, but when she experiments with these items we see a definite shift in her mood for the worse. We started this when she was 12yo and she is 14yo now and she is starting to connect the dots between her eating and her mental/emotional states. It's been a long hard process, but we wouldn't change a thing. We are so grateful that our peditrition is an out-of-the-box thinker

Now, our 11yo son is allergic to wheat. We haven't seen much change in him. He doesn't seem to get sick as often though.

Thanks for the replay, it's been nice conversing on the subject. "
