After several investigations into the cause of these infections including an ultrasound of her kidneys and bladder as well as a very uncomfortable micturating cysto-urethrogram all was found to be completely normal. It finally occured to me to ask my doctor about the flushable wipes my daughter has been using and she said that likely those have been the cause all along. We also used the wipes only for when my daughter had bowel movements but that is enough to do it apparently. I reccomend avoiding the use of these wipes!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32686050.post-67218066760052692192007-08-29T10:56:00.000-05:002007-08-29T10:56:00.000-05:00Believe it or not, some kids do suck on wipes.

But I made clear from the beginning that they weren't for "everyday" use. We used them only when she had a bm. Since she can't see back there, she was having trouble getting cleaned off. She used Kandoos only for that and not for the wiping anything/part else.<BR/><BR/>But I'm not surprised that it would cause problems for little girls especially. I always had similar sensitivities (I could never use Mr. Bubble until I was grown up, and then the idea that your bubbles are actually little men = creepy).indywriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14108023297967433564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32686050.post-66127992288808933382007-08-07T11:54:00.000-05:002007-08-07T11:54:00.000-05:00Thanks for alerting me to the dangers of these wip...Thanks for alerting me to the dangers of these wipes. I suffered from UTIs as a child, probably from using scented bubble baths and colored toilet paper. When I start potty training my daughter next year, I definitely won't be using these!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
