Toddlers: 24 Months+

Almost 4 year old with Body Odor

My daughter will be 4 in May and about 6 months ago we started to notice she would get a foul smelling body odor (like an adult without deodorant) if she was really active or didn't wash well in the bath.  We would notice it on and off because it has ben cold, but now that it is slowly starting to get warmer and she is getting more active, I am noticing it more often.   I thought it was better when I gave her a bath but the past few nights at bedtime I have noticed it.  I give her a bath every night and am just worried and not sure what to do with warmer weather approaching.  

We had blood work 6 months back and that was normal.  Should I use different soap, cut out certain foods?  Anyone have experience with this and can give some guidance!  Thanks!!!

  • Have you asked your pedi? My initial thought would be baby powder as I would be hesitant to put a deoderant/antipersperant on someone that young.

  • Im guessing that your kid is not into herbs/spices yet, right? So Maybe, it could be the soap. The derma could prescribe something about it. My classmate back in gradeschool had hyperhidrosis (sp?) and he got a prescription for it
