Bedwetting happens during sleep. Your child can't control their bedwetting - it is not their fault. Be patient. Most children grow out of bedwetting.

Daytime wetting occurs in about three and a half percent of healthy children. Two thirds of these children will have bedwetting as well. It's important that all children with daytime wetting are seen by a doctor experienced with children's problems.

Soiling is when your child does poo in their pants after the age when you would expect them to be toilet-trained. Soiling is usually caused by chronic constipation and an overloaded bowel.
