Cellulite in dd 3....

I have noticed my dd has a little bit of cellulite on her bottom
She does eat some junk type food such as crisps maybe 3/4 times a week but she is always jumping about and we do tend to go swimming once or twice a week and to the park maybe 3 times a week
I'm just wondering is this normal? Do some children get it a little ? She does have a naturally round bottom But I'm a little worried that maybe she's not getting ad much exercise a she should to prevent it? Or maybe I should cut the junk out completely?
Sorry for the rambling just a bit unsure what to do and need a bit of advice

How old is your daughter?
is it actually cellulite or just a childs dimply bottom. I'm sure she will grow into it and it is really nothing to worry about.

ahh right, I thought you meant your 3rd dd. Yes, all 3 year olds have dimply butt's

What??! I mean this kindly, but lighten up a bit! You don't want her growing up obsessed with her weight and body image. Here's a Biscuit for your dd, from me!

My 7 month old DD has a lovely dimply bottom.

'Cellulite' is a marketing invention designed to make us buy products. Dimply skin is normal, natural and occurs in skiing people as well as those of normal and larger size.

Skinny not skiing. WTF is with autocorrect...

Thank you for the comments
Didn't meant to come across as weight obsessed and uptight just wasn't sure if all children had dimply bottoms as dd is my first and I don't have anyone else I could of asked
