Hi, hope you and your LO's are all good.

I'm just after a bit of advice/ reassurance really.
This past couple of week Oliver has been complaining of pain in her legs or feet. Its not always the same leg or foot, it varies. At first I thought it was maybe cramp but it seems to be happening more and more..its like every other day now to the point he cant bare any weight on it and gets really distressed.
My friends LO is the same age as Oliver and has been having similar problems with her feet and discomfort with walking at times, she took her to the doc's but the doctor basically said not to worry What help is that??

I thought maybe its because we don't use the pram any more so is walking much more, but then the past few days we've be stuck in but he's still suffering.

Has anyone elses LO has this problem or any advice? If it carries on i'm going to take him to the doc's I think, but have a feeling I'll get fobbed off too as we have the same doctor

Umm no advise im afraid....but could it be pins and needles? I would take still take him to docs, or maybe HV?

I'd deffo take him to the docs and get him check out.

I dont want to sound dim but have you checked his shoes are not hurting him?

Hope you're ok xxx

hiya hun my daughter who is 3 had the exact same problem took her to gp who refered her to been seen by a specialist at the hospital and they said it was growing pains she still complains of pains in her feet and legs but they said they will grow out of it. if you are worried hun take her to get checked over but i have a feeling it could be growing pains good luck chick.xxxx.

Thanks ladies, Its not his shoes as I check them regular anyway. He's getting these pains in his knees too. Its just seems to come on sporadically, sometimes he's sat, stood, walking etc

I've been doing a bit of reading up and it seems like quite a common problem of this age group Growing pains?!

I've started asking him again if he wants to use his pram if we're going long distances again. I'm going to keep a note of it and if it continues i'm going to take him to the doc's
