Frequent accidents...uti? - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

Dd3 will be 4 next month and suddenly she has started having accidents...like several a day. Most are in the bathroom and it's like she just doesn't make it. She pl'd easily 2 years ago and this is very unlike her. No fever, not mentioning any pain. Could it be a uti? Wondering if I should give her ped a call.

I don't think it hurts to give the ped a call. When my niece had a UTI at around that age, she was literally screaming in pain every time she had to pee.

My 6yo will occasionally still do this. Hell, my 11 yo SS sometimes has issues as well. For both of them, they get invested in whatever they are doing -- playing, reading, etc -- and don't want to stop so they put off the inevitable. Then the mad dash to the bathroom occurs. Sometimes they don't make it. What is your DD doing prior to these accidents? It may be that you need to interrupt her occasionally and remind her about using the bathroom.
