Hi C.,
My 11 year old son also has the same problem. He requires wearing a goodnite or under-jams every night but still manages to hide it when going to a sleep-over. (Bless his little heart)
He does not have ADHD and has been seen by a specialist at Children's Hospital. What the Dr. told me is that #1, it's hereditary and #2 sodium (salt) intake is a HUGE factor. It will pass as they grow when the bladder and the body are 'in-sync', if you will. There are devices out there to wake your child when urine is detected, but I chose not to resort to using anything because of the high costs and no guarantee that it works. There is also medication, but I hated how negatively it altered his mood. (depressed)
Just let your daughter know that when her bladder is ready it will stop and that it's NOT his fault and most of all that she's NOT the only child going thru it.
Oh~ One last thing...My son had a very high bilirubin when he was born (24). Although it wasn't ever mentioned in our Dr.'s visit, I often wonder if that played a role in his inability to control his urine during sleep.
