My dd is just 3; in the last two months, she has started to have her poos little and often: she will produce some, then 20 mins later some more, etc, etc. Her anus seems to ooze in between, to the extent that we dare not leave her bare-bottomed, and she will always leave smears in the bath .
She is definitely not constipated though: it isn't a matter of her having a hard lump with runny stuff oozing round it..
Has anyone come across this? I wondered initially if it was a by-product of her still being in nappies and pooing sitting down - I thought perhaps she wasn't 'clearing' her poo properly. Now I wonder if there is an allergy issue, or perhaps a physical problem.
Anyone have a similar dc?
