DD1 is 4.5 and most days has quite a pronounced pot belly. Is this normal?
For context, she's pretty small for her age, both in height (101cm) and weight (15kg). This isn't surprising, as DH and I are also small. It's not a weight concern I have, it's just her stomach is often very disproportionate.
I know young toddlers can have big tummies but is this something she should have grown out of by now? She's very active, with what I think is a good appetite, no signs of illness generally. But she is very gassy, with extremely frequent burping all day, and slightly less frequent (but still frequent!) farting. This is a more recent change.
Does this suggest a digestive issue? Or are some children just pot bellied and burpy?
