Some foods and drinks can "irritate" the bladder. Unfortunately these include all the good things: e.g." Coke Cola fizzy drinks and caffeine as in tea and coffee.
Alcohol can make wetting worse. It increases the fluid you take late at night. It makes you more sleepy at night. Alcohol stimulates the kidney to produce more urine.
Constipation is known to "irritate" the bladder. If your
bowel motions are hard or large, some laxatives may help.
Drinking more during the day helps, probably by "stretching" the bladder and giving your brain plenty of opportunity to know what a full bladder feels like.
