4 year old constantly saying she needs wee

[Luciemariee93]

Hi has anybody else's child constantly say they need a wee but do nothing 90% of the time. My little girl is 4 years old, I thought it was because she was in the swimming pool & she just thought she needed one being in the water. But this has lasted over a month now & I dont know if it's just a habit now or something else. Shes out of pull ups of a night no problem there. Advice please? Thank you.

A long shot, but when my firstborn was just 5 she had this problem with much urgency. It seemed to feel like a bladder infection to her, but there was no infection. Many doctor visits and we could barely leave the house with the terrible urgency. Her pediatrician finally suggested (as a long shot guess) that perhaps she had a food sensitivity and to try first removing all dairy in every form, including whey in crackers. We did so. Miraculous and almost instant results. The number of times she headed to the bathroom in a day went from 30/40 down to 8 within one week. As I say, a long shot but not that hard to try! Best wishes, I know it's a frantic problem...
