Is this normal for a 3 year old girl

I noticed the last 2-3 days dd's nipples have looked really swollen and if you push them they feel like there is a hrad bump under them.  Also on wed she told me her underwear were yucky I thought she had pee'd a tiny bit before she got to the bath room but the had mucus on them.  Is this normal or should call her pedi tmrw.  They are opened today for 20 more mins if I should call now.  Or should I wait a few days and see what happens.  I have not seen the mucus since but she hates underwear and only wears them when we leave the house and I have been having morning sickness since thrusday so we really have not left the house.  What could this be and what should I do?

My daughter never experienced either of those issues.  I would probably bring her into the pediatrician on Monday.

My DD has never experienced either of these I would call the pedi and have them call you back if they are closed.

I don't think it's normal but I don't think I'd call the pedi about it on a Sunday, either.  I would likely google and wait a few days.

I'd make an appt for next week.

I googled and it seems the discharge could be a yest infection but thats all she has not redness and she is not itching that I notice and this kid hangs on me all day I would have seen it.  I can find things on swollen nipples but from what Im reading its normal but they also dont sound like what she has.  I will call her doctor's office in the morning and see what he says

Newborns have swollen nipples from mom's hormones, and the discharge cna be hormone related (well at least I know it is in us), so maybe it's just a hormone thing? I'd probably just wait until tomorrow to call the ped just to be on the safe side. GL!

i think i read once that there are (at times) a high level of progesterone (or maybe it's estrogen, I cannot remember) released during big growth spurts and on rare occasion little ones can get temporary breast buds and signs of impending puberty... but that it goes away.  however, I'd probably run it by my pedi on Monday.

DD has never had those issues.

If it were me, I would call the dr and be in there for an appt first thing tomorrow morning.
