My youngest dd is nearly 2 she's healthy in herself but we haven't had an easy time from me being pregnant to her being about a year old. I was a high risk for ds 1 in 12 and 1 in 23 for Edward's and pateus. When she was born at 39+2 she was 5lb and tiny. At 5 weeks old she was diagnosed with reflux and ended up under the peads as gaviscon didn't work by 10 months she finally seemed over that. Not long after she was rushed to hospital after having febrile convulsions caused by a chest infection. I do tend to be a bit overprotective and can worry about small things.
During a development check with the hv i mentioned I was a bit worried about 2 small dimples at the top of her bottom and asked for advice on how to make sure she didn't get sore as none of my other DC had this. I wasn't sure if we needed any extra precautions as it was never mentioned at the hospital after her birth or during midwife checks. The hv looked and said I needed to see the gp as she had slight concerns. We went and the gp said he wasn't overly concerned at the time as the dimples were blind but to go back if she seemed behind developmentally at any point.

Shes walking and talking and seems a bright happy girl but I've started to worry as one of the dimples has become a bit more pronounced and she has started walking on her top toes if shes barefoot which she had stopped doing not long after walking at 13 months. Shes also started dribbling a lot but she has all her teeth so far so definitely isn't teething. She also sounds snuggly and chest at times even though she has no cough or cold. This has been going on for around 3 weeks now and during this times she started snoring quite loud.

She sleeps well often 7 till 7 and can have up to a 3 hr nap most day. She eats well and is active and does well developmentally. She can run and jump and speaks really well.

I don't know if I'm just being a bit paranoid and worrying about small things or if I should take her to get checked out as like I say she well in herself. I can post a pic of the dimple if needed I took 1 in case I take her to gp to save trying to undress her there.
