What's wrong with crying when peeing ... peeing can tell the baby's health. Whether it is color change, obvious increase or decrease in frequency, or various dysuria, it may indicate that there is something wrong with the baby's health and it is necessary to see a doctor in time.
Mom doesn't have to worry about these problems.
The baby urinates frequently.
It is normal for a baby to urinate more than an adult, because the muscles of the baby's bladder are not yet mature and the ability of the urethral sphincter to control urine is not enough. The bladder can store less urine, so it will urinate more often. With the growth of the baby's age, the amount of urine stored in the bladder increases, and the number of urination will gradually decrease. /kloc-babies under 0/year-old usually urinate 1 5 ~ 20 times a day, and it will be reduced to 5~8 times after 2 years old. If the baby is within the normal range, the mother doesn't have to worry.
Intermittent urination
The baby's function of making urine and discharging urine from the body has not been fully developed, so intermittent urination will occur. As the baby grows older, this phenomenon will gradually disappear.
Danger signals that need to be taken seriously by mom.
Yellow urine
The baby's yellow urine is probably caused by drinking too little water. Of course, the possibility of pathological changes is not ruled out. At this time, let the baby drink more water and observe the color of the baby's urine at any time. If the color becomes lighter, it means that it is caused by drinking less water; If the color is still yellow, you must go to the hospital for examination.
There is little urine.
The baby urinates very little, or it may be caused by drinking too little water. If the baby urinates very little when drinking plenty of water, then it is necessary to check whether the baby has symptoms such as eyelid edema and foot edema at the same time. If you have edema, you should go to the hospital for examination. Maybe there's something wrong with the kidney system.
Urine is a little red.
The baby's urine is a little red, so don't be nervous for the time being. First, think about whether you have eaten some foods or drugs that can cause urine redness recently, such as rifampicin, an anti-tuberculosis drug. If not, then carefully observe the color of urine. If urine is the color of meat washing water, it means hematuria. This disease is common in urinary system diseases, such as acute nephritis and pyelonephritis. So you must go to the hospital for examination at once.
Pain during urination
If it's time for the baby to pee for three or four hours, the baby suddenly cries and doesn't want to pee, or it hurts when peeing, then the mother should be vigilant. It is best to check whether the baby's vulva is red and swollen. If it is red and swollen, it may be because the diaper has not been changed for a long time, so the buttocks have been soaked in urine for a long time or the urethra is infected. It is recommended to consult a doctor before handling it yourself.
Always try to pee.
Urgency in infants is very common. If the baby doesn't cry and there are no other symptoms, the mother doesn't have to worry. She can continue to observe and see how things develop. If the baby is crying badly, it is obvious that the baby is uncomfortable, which is probably caused by urinary tract infection. At this time, you must go to the hospital for examination.
Whiteness of urine
Baby's urine is white, which is more common in cold winter (rarely in summer). In fact, this is because the baby's kidneys are not yet mature. Eating some foods containing oxalate and phosphate, such as spinach and persimmon, will crystallize when urine is excreted, forming a layer of hoarfrost. If the urine is white and accompanied by other symptoms, such as fever, chills, edema and so on. It shows that the baby has urinary system infection and needs to see a doctor in time.
have difficulty in urination
If the baby has bifurcated urine and drops of urine, it is best to take the baby to see a doctor, so that the doctor can rule out urethral malformation and other problems.
Q: Is it a problem for the baby not to pee for a long time?
Expert: If the baby hasn't peed for a long time, it may be that the baby has had so much fun that he forgot to pee. At this time, the mother will take responsibility and remind the baby to pee every 2 hours. Even if there is no urine, it is necessary to have a toilet training. There are also some babies who have formed habits and will degenerate when the environment changes suddenly. When the baby's mood is stable, the habit of peeing will also recover.
Color and smell of baby urine
The baby's urine is dark in the first few days, but then it will turn yellow and transparent.
The smell of normal urine is similar to the smell of ammonia water, similar to the smell of disinfectant at home, and it often takes some time for the smell to become more obvious. If the baby's urine smells bad, the mother had better take the baby to see a doctor in time.
Baby's daily urine volume
The baby's urine output varies from person to person. Under normal circumstances, the daily urine output of 0~ 1 year-old baby is 400 ~ 500ml, and that of 0 ~ 3-year-old baby is 65438+500~800ml. Mothers should pay attention to the fact that the daily urine output of 0~ 1 year-old baby is less than 200ml, and that of 1~3-year-old baby is less than 300ml, indicating oliguria, and that the daily urine output is less than 50ml, indicating anuria. If the baby's urine output is less than the above value for seven days in a week, it is oliguria or anuria, so it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination.
Doing these three things well can prevent the baby from peeing.
1. Drink more water.
The baby's metabolism is vigorous and the water demand is relatively large. Mothers should encourage their babies to drink more water and promote the excretion of metabolites in the body. The urine in the urinary tract flows smoothly, even if a small amount of bacteria and viruses enter the urethra, they will be washed away by the urine discharged in time, which helps to avoid urinary tract infection.
2. Change diapers frequently
Baby's urine contains ammonia and other ingredients, which will promote bacterial reproduction. Let the baby wear wet diapers or diapers for a long time, which will easily lead to urinary system infection or inflammation of reproductive organs, and will also cause a * * reaction to the skin around the baby's buttocks, leading to skin problems such as diaper rash. Therefore, mothers should always change diapers or diapers for their babies.
3. Always clean your little ass.
Insist on dipping a towel in warm water every day to help your baby clean little ass, which plays an important role in preventing urinary system infection. When cleaning the female treasure's ass, gently scrub it from front to back; When cleaning the boy's ass, gently push the outer foreskin of * * to clean the baby's inner side and scrotum. Remember to rinse with tap water after cleaning to avoid residual dirt.
