Ds seems to bruise quite easily. Has all the usual ones on his shins but noticed this evening he had about 5 or 6 small circle ones on his thigh
Asked him if anybody had he been banging his scooter on his leg and he said no but friend had grabbed his leg when they were on a climbing frame

I remember as a child my cousin had a very low Count for white platelets or blood cells or something and he was always covered in bruises

It's a tough one, kids of that age are always brushing themselves they are so clumsy, noticed a bruise on my sons thigh this evening, that said if you are worried see your GP never ignore your instincts, is he well in every other way?

Yes strong and healthy child, at average height and weight etx
Seemed to have one cold after another this last winter and spring but I would say most of his reception class seemed the same
