my dd (3) had been diagnosed with a UTI. She is on anti-biotics and is quite perky but she is completly incontinent with her wee and seems to have no idea when it is coming and will not sit on the loo. Does anyone know if this is normal and when she will regain control?

Yes its normal, it should stop when the infection is clear or clearing.

The ABs should start taking effect within 24 hours. How long has she been on them?
