For the last few days my wee girls urine has been giving off a very strong smell.
At first i thought it was just because the nappy leaked and went onto her clothes and dried, but tonight i went to tuck her in before i go to bed and i could smell the urine a metre from her!!! Any ideas??? Could it be a kidney/bladder infection or maybe just change in diet?

Could it be something she has eaten? Doesn't asparagus give urine a funny smell? Not sure if anything else does ------------- Lindsey

Because the weather is warmer, unless she's drinking more fluids her urine will be more concentrated so it will smell stronger than normal. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

To rehash my badly worded post, unless she is drinking more now it's warmer, she will be dehydrated which will concentrate her urine, giving it a stronger smell. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

I agree with the drinking more. Especially now it's getting hotter.
How much water would she usually drink in a day? My DD's urine is clear and doesn't smell at all, she would drink (those drink bottles with a straw) anywhere between 2 and 5 a day! Plus a watered down juice with dinner. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Roisin refuses water or juice and will only have her bottles of formula - which is a special formula for lactose intolerance called NEOCATE which has everything she needs in it.
She has 6 bottles at 180ml a day. SOMETIMES i can get her to have 30mls water at lunch...over water to her in sippy cup every feed. |
