We encourage children to be actively involved in their own healthcare in age-appropriate ways, adjusting care and providing transitional support as they grow.

Bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) is the act of urinating during sleep, particularly at the age of 5 or older. A child with nocturnal enuresis wets only during sleep.

Symptoms like hard or dry stool, abdominal pain and infrequent bowel movements can indicate constipation. Learn about causes, treatments and see how CHOP can help.
