Body Odour In 5 Year Old?

Hi

My daughter has just come down from bed upset so I went to give her a cuddle and got a faint whiff of BO from her 😳 Definitely coming from her and definitely body odour it wasn't funny washing smell or anything like that. Has anyone experienced this before?

I'm unsure whether to go to the GP or to try and find a gentle roll on for her? A little freaked out if I'm being honest.

Could it be from someone she's been in contact with / close proximity to? Like a teacher?

Kids that age can be stinkers. Maybe a morning and evening shower is needed.

My 6 year old boy gets smelly armpits. I’ve been wondering whether I should see the GP too

My dd5 gets like this when she's not well or eats too much sugar!

My DS gets smelly too , from jumping around non stop. Even straight after a bath.
