Surely it’s too young for her to be smelling of Bo? She had a shower this morning and then has been at school/done pe and this evening she really pongs! Iv noticed it a few times tbh. She’s a very sweaty child, she always has been since a tiny baby and her little nose would sweat. Her hair gets really sweaty etc.

is it normal?

My 6 year old is the same. Spoke to doctor who asked if she was average size and general health. He said it wasn't a concern as I mentioned I noticed it more in hot weather/ when sweating and for her to drink more water (she's terrible at drinking enough). I'm waiting for the cooler weather and trying to get her to drink more and then I will try again if there is still odour.

Yes mine was stinky. Finally got her to wear deodorant now age 9.
