Question: Are they safe if something is spilled on them (or a child wets the bed)?

Electrowarmth Bedwarmers Frequently Asked Questions
Answer: Yes. The heating element wires within the bedwarmers are shielded. In the case of bed wetting, however, there is also a cleanliness issue. We recommend covering the ElectroWarmth® fitted bedwarmer (heated mattress pad) with a rubber sheet such as can be purchased at numerous department and discount stores. The rubber sheet will help keep the ElectroWarmth® fitted bedwarmer (heated mattress pad) clean and will reduce the need for frequent washings.

My child wets the bed. Should I lift him to the toilet during the night?

Enuresis FAQ
This is definitely worth trying for a few weeks because it may permit the child to start progressing towards dryness. If you do plan to try scheduled lifting, the recommended intervals are: 30 minutes after he falls asleep (even if he voided before bed), and then just before 10 pm, 2 am and 5 am. These are the most common times bedwetting naturally happens.

How can I clean the mattress if, for example, a child wets the bed?

CONFORT SUIZO
The best way to treat this problem is to prevent it. Confort Suizo offers mattress pads for this purpose. If a child wets the bed, the pad prevents urine from filtering into the mattress. In the morning, the pad can be removed, washed and replaced on the bed, preventing odors, stains and deterioration of the product.

My 5 year old wets the bed. Is he too young for treatment?

Enuresis FAQ
Most healthcare providers delay treatment until children are 7 years old, but treatment with an alarm is effective at the age when the child is no longer afraid of it, which is generally around 5. Younger children may be treated with activities like scheduled lifting and bowel programs (if irregularity is found.) About 1/3 of children who visit their doctor for bedwetting are diagnosed with Secondary Enuresis. That means they had been dry but started wetting again.

My five-year-old still wets his bed habitually. Is bedwetting common at this age?

My son is five years old. He usually sleeps very soundly through the night and I find that this could be the reason he wets his bed sometimes. On someone's advice I have taken to bringing him to the toilet at least once a night. This however does not seem to be working out for two reasons, firstly I have to carry him to the bathroom since he refuses to wake up and secondly, it disrupts my own sleep.

When is it safe to send a child back to school?

head louse treatment and prevention FAQs
Most schools have a no-nit policy to control head lice outbreaks. Generally, when you have completed one pediculicidal treatment & one olive oil treatment (or two olive oil treatments) and a thorough nit combing and manually removed all nits, you can send your child back to school. At this point, there should be nothing left on the head that is capable of moving onto another head. However, this does not mean your child is lice free.

Dittie Premium Feminine Protection: tampons, pads, pantiline...
Here's the story—it's completely safe to wear a tampon overnight, as long as you change it within 8 hours. If you snooze for longer than 8, you should set your alarm to get up and change the tampon or just stick with pads. Keep in mind that you should always aim to use the lowest absorbency possible to avoid TSS, only upgrading to super absorbency if your flow is very heavy.
