Something not quite right with toddler?

[kbx201]

For about a week my toddler has been out of sorts. He’s not sleeping and not eating. He’s having runny poos 2-3x a day roughly. And just not really his normal self. After a poo today his bum was bleeding. None of this warrants GP appointment I know, but does anyone have any ideas what’s up? No temp, no sickness, no teething. Just a wee bug maybe? FTM and always get anxious at anything being out of sorts. TIA. Oh and he’s 21 months!

I would disagree here, if you know he’s not right you ought to trust your gut and get him seen to.

On top of that, I would 100% get him seen for the runny poo love him, especially as it’s bleeding!

Agree with pp, trust your gut and get him seen

A child that young I would talk to NHS direct (is it still called that) about and maybe get a Dr appointment. It’s a long time to have diarrhoea

I'd say that diarrhoea on that level and now with blood justifies a GP appointment. If he's been unwell for a week I'd even see out of hours before Monday. If your instinct says something is wrong it's worth getting him checked. It's probably not anything to panic over but you need to know what's going on.

I also would get him seen. For example last week my DD (2.5 yo) woke up with a temperature and said her ear hurt but 2 hours later she was running around like a lunatic and was acting fine. I didn’t wanna go GP and it be nothing but decided to get her seen to be safe and turned out she had double ear infection.

FYI she had diarrhoea and wasn’t sleeping and eating for about a week beforehand either so I’d definitely get him seen.

I’d say that definitely warrants a gp appointment. A week is a long time for someone so young to be not sleeping or eating properly, and daily runny poos for that long is very concerning, particularly with blood.
