How often does your 4 YO DD wee?

DD seems to be drinking and weeing a lot more for her than what I'm used to. She's had 3 wees in the last 1 hour & 30 after downing half a flask of juice in the car. She has weakened squash but this is nothing new. I stupidly googled & everything is shouting 'Diabetes' at me, but she's not lost any weight & I wouldn't say she's any more tired than normal. (Sleeps roughly ten hours a night, no day naps) just curious to see what others say is their norm.

Is the squash a novelty? If not I’d be concerned I think.

Actually, having reread, I wouldn’t think anything as a one off. But keep an eye on it.

@WeCome1 No it's nothing new. I thought yesterday eve she was weeing a bit more than normal but we have been out shopping all day & I haven't thought it again since just now after we got home. She's been out of nappies at night for a year & was fine from 7pm yesterday until 6:30am today but maybe I'll contact Docs tomorrow & get their opinion.

Diabetes red flag is night time
wetting and waking to drink in a previously dry child -
If this is just day time i wouldn’t think anything wrong at all. Half
a flask isn’t excessive drinking and 3 wees
not either, I wouldn’t worry 💞
