I haven ' t . But I ' ve watched shows based in Miami and I ' m not sure I could deal with the steady stream of explosions . <| sep |> Yes the bladder grows as we age but some still continue to have smaller bladders . As for dreaming I believe most of us have had our brain kick in with a pee scenario . Some brains get mixed message could be to deep sleep , alcohol or other issues . One that I experience is the elusive toilet open to air where everyone can see a toilet turning into a chair . Even have gone far enough as to urinating in my dream . No urination in RL but then the subconscious keeps sending me even more bizarre dreams . Also women who have given natural birth may have more issues with sphincter control , ie I pee when I sneeze so when the bladder is full it ' s like an emergency . You can also learn to ignore the impulse . I was a nurse for a long time and you can ' t just go sorry I have to pee I the middle of a procedure . So ignore it . Then by the time you get to pee the bladder is so stretched can ' t pee you have to relax so muscle and sphincter do too may take a bit . I no longer nurse due to severe back injury and spinal nerve damage . Again the spinal cord may not transmit the order from the brain . In my case . I actually had to see a gyno urology specialist . Because I wasn ' t urinating . Usually 12 up to 24 hours no pee or sensation of needing to go . But if I stood up run baby run . Not all the time . but then again if I just peed small amount I would have bladder spasms sit on the toilet for a long time or have to visit it all the time , no urine or forced urination of a few drops that at least helped with the spasms sometimes press down on my abdomen to help reduce them . Well they at first thought sphincter issue . I knew it wasn ' t since I had repair done when I had surgery for other issues . They filled me up , no leaking nothing even stretched my bladder . The problem I was having the further I had to walk to bathroom more pressure I guess and my sphincter just finally gave way especially when walking you can ' t cross you legs The way I resolved this was to go at least a few times a day on set timing with my pain meds mostly my antiinflammatory since I take them every 6 hrs . I also have decreased sensation legs and feet . Also I have noticed that constipation can have influence . Full bowel especially chronic can leave less room for urine . As per the study I wouldn ' t recommend enemas laxatives the body becomes used to . Saw this in my practice even a term for this . Fiber supplements or food high in fiber also adequate intake of fluids is also important helps movement . Plus natural products can help . Some people ' s bladders just remain smaller . Again medical help and please positive reinforcement . No negative or shaming . Sometimes drinking less liquids especially caffine type ones after a certain time would help . Also drink less water as bedtime comes closer . I don ' t mean to imply leave a child thirsty offer ice . Try it at home melt a cup of ice and you will see less amount than water . That unfortunately is not an option for me I actually have to drink water all the time have some near me I suffer from severe dry mouth , eyes you name it could be an issue with others too . Well I know I have bounced all over the place . But there can be many reasons for bed wetting . Maybe time as in age may help , medication . But it can also be tied to trauma physical or emotional . I am talking about abuse even if some may think we ' ll it wasn ' t much . But the psyche the subconscious mind may differ . But there are steps that can help . Medication therapy , pelvic and sphincter exercises also just setting up a routine of urinating being the last thing you do and the first , even getting at least once in the night . Some might say we ' ll that will run sleep but it can also keep a bed dry and a very young or older ego from feeling shame or fault as many times we can tell ourselves or another person it ' s not your fault . The inner child or voice I us blames ourselves especially children . How many times have we inter ally blamed ourselves for something out of our control even though we know it ' s not . The psyche is fragile especially in children .
