In general you can do the following
set fluid intake limitations.
Reduce or cut out caffeine and alcohol from diet.
Make urinating a routine. Void bladder before bedtime even when you don't quite feel the need to go.
Set a night time bathroom alarm to urinate in the middle of the night.
In homeopathy, there are very encouraging results for enuresis. And homeopathic medicines are safe as well without side effects.

The involuntary urination in the bed is called nocturnal enuresis and is due to hormonal imbalance. Most people produce most of their urine during the day and very little at night. Occasionally, an infection in the urine or other bladder problems may cause bedwetting. Stress or anxiety may sometimes start the problem, with the wet nights continuing long after the stress is over.
