copying from children's health - didnt realse this board was here!
My DD has been full potty-trained since January, when she turned 2.5. She was well ready for it, and it was very straightforward - she wet herself probably only once or twice. Over the course of a few weeks she was increasingly able to hold it in once she annouced she needed for a wee - eg if in the car she could hold on 15 - 20 mins until we reached a loo. Until yesterday..when she wet herself twice, once at nursery, and once when she was trying to get on to the loo, but didnt make it in time. She has also now wet herself twice today - once in the car - she didnt even tell me she needed a wee, she just told me she had done it - and then again when about to get in the bath...she was distressed about it (as she had been the toehr three times) and it was like she had no warning at all. She is compeltely fine in herself- no temp, no pains etc. Well, she does have a bit of a cold actually, and her brother, my 17 month old DS does have a really bad cold, with temp and infected ears (which he is on antibios for). But she has not had the temp and has not been nearly as bad as him.
The other thing is that this week she has started full days at nursery for a few days (previosuly was doing mornings only, but am about to go back to work next week).
Does anyone have any experience or advice? Could this be some kind of urine infection, without other symptoms or temp? Could it be related to her cold and will pass? or is it more likely a behavioural thing?
I am weighing up whether i should wait and see, or whether to take her to the GP (i am very slightly reluctant to go, which i know is stupid, but have been three times in last 6 days, twice for me, once for DS..and of course i wont hesitate to go if think DD should be seen, just dont want to go if totally unnecessary).
PS just to clarify, when i say full potty-trained, she wears pull-ups at nights, and on the occasions when she has a nap during the day - maybe twice a week.
thank you for any advice!
