She says her throat is in her tummy and her forehead has gone white. But nothing hurts.

Not worried, just trying to identify the problem so I can at least try to fix it.

When she got back from nursery today she went for several wees one after the other then complained her wee was stuck. Then she had a nap from which I had to wake her to pick her brother up from school. She got straight on the loo after waking and a small wee shot out at 90 miles an hour. Picked up the boy, came home, watched the snowman and she went back to sleep. Woke again at 6pm but didn't eat any dinner, talked about her throat being in her tummy and went to bed. Not sure how much she slept but she has been back downstairs for around half an hour (we've watched the snowman and the snow dog. You have to keep rotating them :)). She looks miserable. He face is flushed but she doesn't feel hot, her tonsils don't look any more huge than normal and her glands don't feel inflamed (usually they balloon at first sign of any illness).

I want to make my baby girl feel better :(

UTI infection? Does she usually get sore a throat and is saying her tummy is sore because its sore rather than her throat?
BTW I know what Im trying to say.......Hmm

Sorry Blush

UTI.

Urine infection. Maybe she feels a burning sore feeling, like a sore throat in her tummy?

UTI has crossed my mind, especially with the wee. She is normally quite good at describing pain though and hasn't mentioned pain when weeing.

But I've just looked up symtoms and lazy/sluggish is up there.

That'll be a call to the GP in the morning then. Fun fun.
