I have looked it up and it says it’s not uncommon but I need to see if I’m the only one that has a 6 year old with BO.

What soap are you using for him??

Oh my goodness yes! He has to bathe or shower every night but no matter how often his feet smell worse than my husbands gym bag 🤢

I’ve heard kids that young with bad BO i never had kids with bad bo yet but I think maybe have him take a bath/shower every night

Yes! With my very active 6 year old. I started squeezing juice from a lime & putting on their freshly cleaned under arms then follow up with a carrier oil like grapeseed or coconut oil & it works like magic!! Last all day!

we use aveeno because of his eczema.

omg thank you. Good to know I’m not alone and I can’t imagine putting deodorant on a 6year old.

he has eczema so our shower routine is every other day. But at this point this kid is going to have to take one every night! 😳

yess!! On a really wild day where I know we’ll be going to the library, then nature park, then sports right after, I’ll put some of the native eucalyptus on the outside underarm part of their shirt!

I'm a grown woman and I use Lemon juice fresh or the little bottle and Mineral salt deodorant that's all it is called Thai

My 4 yo smells like actual booty all the time. And it’s not from lack of proper wiping or hygiene. It’s her skin itself too. Not coming from her booty. I even tried using an expensive bacteria killing acid wash with her and she still stinks. So I’ll take BO any day.

I hate to laugh but the way you said it! I guess sometimes these kids just play hard and what we eat does come out in our sweat. I was thinking maybe it was something in my son’s diet but I feed my kids pretty healthy clean meals so I’m just chalking it as he’s a boy and he is starting to get BO 😆 🤷🏾‍♀️

My mom told me my 5 year old needs to start wearing deodorant 🤣🤣🤣 I don’t notice it, but I figured what can it hurt so started to after each of his baths. 🤷‍♀️
