To elaborate on my question; before we left to on the plane she was complaining of being sore on her private. I mistook it for not cleaning her well enough after she went poop. That happened before when she wasn't clean enough and it made her rash. I asked her why it was sore and she told me she didn't know until we got on the plane and I asked her if it was still sore and she said she didn't want to tell me because it was "nasty". I told her she could tell me, that it was OK to tell me! She was very tired and was trying to fall asleep at the time and when I kept asking she kept pushing me away. Then, without trying to put thoughts into her head, I guess I asked in a way that she told me Mr. Ben touched it. I told her thanks for telling me and that she wasn't in trouble. When we got home I tried to look at it but she wouldn't let me, I was able to put desitin on it while she slept because it did look a little red from what I could see. The next day while giving her a bath she didn't complain of it and when I asked her again if he touched it she told me no. I don't know what kind of questions to ask without putting ideas into her. I watched her behavior as weeks and now months have gone on and she hasn't changed or shown symptoms of being touched. She doesn't cry out, or wet the bed, she sleeps in her room by herself, she goes to bed easy. For some reason it still haunts me. I am losing sleep over this. Is it too late to do something about it? I feel so guilty allowing the opportunity to happen and not saying something earlier when not knowing if there is truth to it. Is there? What should I do now?

This is a follow up to a previous questions about knowing if my daughter was touched while visiting a family member in another state almost a year ago. I just get thought of this happening out of my head. The fact that I can't almost makes me think I should do something about it, but what?
