Thank you for the advices.

At least I do one good thing about it: I dont scold her, I just change the bed and wash the plastic covers on the bed every morning.

I will definitly mention conseling to the Dr in decembre.

Hi!
Until you can consult the doctor, limit fluids in the evening. Set up an alarm your self and manually lift the child once a night and take her to washroom. Once you start getting up, you will come to know around what time she normally wets the bed. Just start waking her up before that, with love and patience. Do not scold her or make her ashamed of this problem. Also do not add undue importance to it.
A number of times one does not realize, but the child is stressed out because of say the school, a classmate, a teacher or a subject. Counseling will definitely help.
The treatment will be slow and with ups and downs. Patience is the key to success.
Take care!
