Child mas*urbat*ng

my lil 7 year old has bean rubbing her vagina with baby wipes a lot is this ok

Any parent will tell you this is pretty normal behavior. Ask her if she feels itchy (it could be a rash afterall). If not, encourage her to 'clean' herself in private.

ok maybe shes itchyy down their
or she has an urge to rub itt
butt I hope that shes itchyy

Uhm,
personally if that was me I'd get like her friends to talk or something.
Or I'd talk to her...
Or look aht the baby wipes and check if there's something that has to do with you know.. Yeah..

I agree, is there anything irritating it?

you need to eliminate a medical or dermatalogical reason first. if there is no actual cause for her rubbing, maybe she is just discovering her own body.

because of her age, she probably simply doesn't realise what she's doing, but she can tell that something down there is different from rubbing her arm!

exploring and experimenting with your own body is completely natural, even if she seems a little young. girls as young as7-8 can start their periods, so it's easy to understand that curiosity about their own body may start at a young age...

in addition, if she is doing it 'for fun' as such, then you need to explain to her that what she's doing is normal, but she needs to go to her room when she does it. after all, you don't want to give her a 'complex' about what she's doing, but you need to educate her that certain behaviours need to be private..

my little boy (naturally when he was younger) used to play with his willy, and I just explain to him that he needs to do that in the privacy of his own room.

it is normal, and I know it must be freaking you out...but your babys growing up! mines starting puberty (I can tell because of the recent growth spurt and the moods lol) but it's wierd to think of your baby really becoming a man or women, I know they're only young, but they're really on the road to adulthood.

so just ask her if she itches etc, or if anything is irritating it? if there is, see a doc.

if not, then she exploring...the body is a mysterious thing when you start discovering 'new parts' lol!

good luck

no thats a bad thing for a 7 year old to be doing inless she has a good reson

no it's not! and it's attitudes like that, that give people dysfunctional attitudes towards their own body.

it's your body, as long as you don't infringe your actions on others and you're not harming yourself - whats the problem. if she is doing it because she likes it, then it's better to take the oppertunity to be aware of her development and the need for education. not suppress any feelings she has, or else when she gets older, she won't find you approachable...

and you know what, I want my child to be able to approach me with any question and know that I will advise him NOT judge him...

...so there ;OD

its funneh what [aliceabnormal] said..whooo. but ir ead it a book, that like little kids do that to get pleasure...or they are 'exploring' in 'places'..lol..maybe shes itchy...?

she could have a vaginal infection it happens a lot
