My DD is 5y4m and has been complaining on and off of tummy ache for the past 2-3 days.

Not crying or doubled over (would take her to docs straight away if that were the case).

She is off her food a bit she has been eating about 50%-60% of what she would normally.

But what has really worried me is that she has had a really pale, clay? coloured poo, she tells me it happened yesterday also. I even got my 13yo DS to come and look at just to make sure I wasn't being daft and seeing things, but he eurghhed and ewwed a bit and said (and I quote) ''there is something seriously wrong with that dump mum!''

So would I be wasting the GP's time if I (try) and book her in in the morning. Anyone else had 'pale poo' experience? Grin

does she drink alot of milk? that can make the poo white

She drinks about 1/4 of a pint of milk in the mornings, but always has. I have yet to see this afternoons poo, will call the gp if it is clay coloured again.

If you're worried the doctor won't mind a visit - just don't use dr google, as i've been known to get in a right lather over symptoms !!
