It could be any of those things. Only way to know is to take her to the doctor. Poor thing. A bad yeast infection side tracked my daughter's potty training by 6 months.

Aww poor baby =o ( Has she went to the restroom since? Usually a UTI (urinary tract infection) you have the urge to pee sooooooo badly but there isn't anything that comes out. She may be feeling she has to go so badly but really doesn't. Ask her if it hurts when she tries to go pee-pee. If she is still having the problem today I would just call the DR.

Sounds like a UTI to me. Hope it gets better quick :( Those are just awful! Cranberry juice is recommended, but antibiotics are usually necessary.

Whatever it is - of course, it is urgent to get her to a doctor. It could be an infection in her urethra (the opening tube from her bladder to the outside). I would not think it is a rash or yeast infection that would cause her to NOT pee and say it hurts so badly, but I guess if it is bad enough and inflamed enough it could. As for bladder infection. Yeah - that is very painful although it usually causes a person to need to pee frequently yet at the same time hurts too much!

I am so sorry, and hope she is OK again real real quickly!

Sounds like UTI. Very common in newly potty trained toddlers, especially girls.

Babycenter.com has some great diagnosis tools, but in my experience, yeast infection = itching, bladder infection hurts when you pee and you feel like you always have to pee, and when you try to pee, sometimes it is just a little bit. I don't have experience with kidney infection. My daughter had a bladder infection and woke up screaming she was in so much pain and was completely fine the day before. You just need to take her to the Dr.

Does she look red? when I was little my mom couldn't use bubble bath in my bath because it caused me to break out just in my private area.
If she is not red it is something internal and you should take her to the doctor.

Sounds like a UTI, take her to the doctor right away, otherwise it can turn into a kidney infection. Best wishes and God bless!

You would be able to see a rash, so if you haven't yet, then you should take a look. Bladder infections and yeast infections need to be cared for by seeing the pediatrician, which I would do ASAP so she can be comfortable again. By the way, bladder infections are common in this age because they tend to "hold it" instead of going when they first get the urge to.
