Why There Is A Bad Odour Caused In Nappies ?
My daughter is 2 1/2 and I have noticed that her nappies sometimes smell fishy. I change her regularly. She doesn't seem to look sore or complain of pain when wee'ing. At the moment she has a molar tooth coming through and has cold like symptoms, runny nose, cough. She is quite a mucus cough.
What could make her nappies/wee smell? Should I take her to see a GP?
