my dayghter is 3 yrs. old and has 3 bladder/kidney infections within 4 months. Why??


Question:
my daughter is 3 and is fighting her 3rd bladder/ kidney infection in the past 4 months. What causes her to have them so frequently?? what can i do to prevent them?

Answers:
Like other people said, make sure she is wiping (or is wiped) from front to back. Cranberry juice can be helpful to prevent further infections, but will not clear up one that has already started. Try using some bleach along with your regular detergent when you wash her underwear (I had problems when I was little and my mom said that's what fixed it).
Has her doctor tested her blood sugar levels? If she urinates a lot and gets frequent infections, her doctor should be checking that to rule out diabetes.
