It’s rarely talked about, but around half a million young children and teenagers wet the bed in the UK – and the numbers are increasing, stopping youngsters from enjoying everyday activities such as sleepovers with their friends.
Determined to help children and their parents, author, presenter and paediatric specialist Dr Ranj Singh has teamed up with Pampers Ninjamas, pants that look and feel like underwear but offer all-night protection from leaks.
“Bed-wetting is a really common occurrence,” Dr Ranj, 44, tells hello!. “So many parents suffer in silence, but you don’t have to manage this by yourself. Ask for help. That’s why I’m working with Ninjamas – they’re a means for your little one to feel more confident.”
Here, Ranj shares his tips on tackling bedwetting, his advice for parents and how he looks after his own wellbeing.
