Hi!
Well, CP is less likely to be the cause of bed wetting in adulthood. The cause is usually stress, functionally small bladder, diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, urinary bladder wall instability, UTI, stones and neurological problems. So, you need to consult a doctor to rule out hese causes. Meanwhile, pass urine before taking a nap. This way there will be much fewer accidents. Also keep the room temperature at a comfortable level. If you are cold while sleeping, this can also cause quicker formation of urine. Hope this helps. Take care!
