A bit of advise please and didnt know whether to post in health or not. DD age 5 for the last week has been going to the loo a fair bit but mainly on the morning before school so say has a wee before set of for school then says needs it as soon as we get there (20 min walk)so i linger about while she does etc then in she goes... At wknd i wouldnt say she went an awful lot but everytime we went anywhere she owuld need the loo even though she would have before we went out iyswim but doesnt go alot when at home. Anyway i have gotten a little cross as began to think it was an attention thing as was becomming a pita and when she went she did nothing - today the usual on the way to school and i was extra careful not to get cross in case it was an attention thing and said it was ok to wee when we got there and in she went and didnt do anything but went to the loo anyway pointing out to me the nice new signs all over the toilets . Anyway when i pick her up teacher tells me she been to loo lots of times so i took her to docs on way home as next to school and she is smiling in waiting room and tells me no pain or anything just her body is sayig she needs a wee. She does a wee sample in the loo at docs which with a 14 month in toe was a logistical nightmare involving me getting a very wet hand!!!! Anyway.... dip sticks show up nothing but i have to hand in another in the morning so he can send it off and then to start antibiotics once she has done her sample.
Really dont want to start them if there is nothing wrong and then also if she has a water infection dont want it to go on any longer than necessary as the poor love must be uncomfy. To this end she came in from school at 3.30 pm and did not go to the loo till bedtime around 6.30. If water sample goesin tomorrow also results wontbe back till Tursday pm. Do you think she is pulling our leg?
