I noticed that she really says her butt itch when its time for us to go bed, i make sure she takes a warm bath, and i looked back there and it dosent seem to look irritated..She says it itches right around her butthole.. I dont know what it could be other than her moving her bowels so frequently...Could it be nerves ? Has anyone ever experienced this what their toddler ? ? If so what did you do and what was the problem ?
 
dont want to scare you but there is a parasite called pinworms that can cause itching around the anus. it might be a good idea to see the doctor...there is a medicine for this. kids get them from playing in dirt and sand and not washing their hands well and then putting their hands in their mouths.
