We lucked out - she has an appt with her pediatrician for Monday, which is a frigging Advent Miracle.
She's just so miserable. And now she's getting stuck in a spiral of badness -- it hurts to pee, so she clenches up and fights it off until her bladder is full to bursting, which is tough on all her little systems, and when she finally does go it's dark and thick and cloudy and it hurts so much that now she wants to hold it in and delay even more. And she's got a rash, too. Poor muffin.
Switch her to all-cotton panties, no cute nylon ones, and have her not wear tights -- wear pants -- while she has the yeast infection. If she HAS to wear tights, get her into cotton PJ pants, no undies, as soon as she gets home. No baths, especially not with bubbles. Poor noodle.
They probably gave an internal cream to combat the yeast infection, but if she has itchies, too, Vagisil really does help.
No powders down there, and switch to a mild soap like Ivory or Johnsons & Johnson's Baby Wash, unscented, if you're not already using it.
Poor baby -- I didn't have my first YI till I was in my twenties.
Aw, Brenda, thanks. Wrod, Frank.
Maybe a peeing song?
It hurts to pee, it hurts to pee,
I hate it when it hurts to pee.
But I know I have to wee
So soon it will not hurt to pee!
I'm gonna pee, I'm gonna pee!
Get the bad pee out of me!
Get it out so I can be me.
Ow ow ow ow, pee, pee, pee!
Poor Matilda. Glad she got an appt so quickly.

Was she only given a topical cream for the yeast infection (i.e., no pill)?
Yeah, just the cream so far. But we'll inquire about the pill.
Thanks for the tips, Erin. Cotton panties and pants and showers it is.
Poor Matilda! That sounds massively not fun.
I really ought to head upstairs and clean a bit, but it doesn't seem to be happening. Well, I still have an hour before work. We'll see.
I'm pleased to say that my child has *never* worn anything but 100% cotton undies. Those other things are completely of the devil.
In better news, on Monday one of her teachers showed her how to do a very basic hem stitch, and now she's making Emmett a pillow for Christmas. Her stitches are very wobbly but already improving, and the whole thing is really pretty damn inpressive for a 5-year-old.

Ah, fare-the-well, Col. Potter.
96? I knew he was old, but I didn't realize he was that old.
