I don't know what it is, but i do know that it is absolutely not a kidney problem. If she were older i would suggest a weak pelvic floor as i do this all the time . It COULD just be that she is not emptying her bladder properly. I would get it checked out, but not because i would be overly worried but because it is going to be problematic for her and embarrasing.

oh, try getting her to do a little dance on the toilet when she goes, from side to side and forward and back (tilting her pelvis) The bladder isn't a discrete round bag and as it empties it can form pockets of wee that may well dribble out as she gets up and walks away. Then get her to try and wee again. Worth a try

Yes,funnily enough I too do the little "dance"on the loo that ur talking about.(Thought I was the only one !)
I've suggested it to her.However,i've had x 3 kids...she hasn't......!
