During pregnancy, many expectant mothers may have imagined countless problems that their babies may encounter after birth, but the issue of their baby's urine during the first period of life is a problem that many expectant mothers tend to overlook. In order to help novice mothers better understand their babies' urination problems, this article will talk about how many times a baby urinates in a month?
The frequency of urination for a one month old baby
For a one month old baby, an increase in urination frequency is normal because kidney function is not yet fully developed. It is okay to urinate more than ten times a day. But there is a direct relationship between frequent urination and water intake, such as eating more milk or regularly feeding water, resulting in slightly more urine output.
Reasons for less frequent urination in a one month old baby
1. Especially in hot weather, coupled with babies drinking less water, it is easy to cause dehydration in the body, resulting in a decrease in urine output. At this point, there is no need to worry, as long as the baby replenishes water in a timely manner, it will be beneficial for improvement.
2. Digestive diseases, especially gastroenteritis, can easily cause persistent high fever, diarrhea, vomiting and other symptoms in babies, leading to dehydration and reduced urine output.
3. Other diseases include congenital urinary system abnormalities, urethral obstruction, renal failure caused by various kidney diseases, and so on. So, when a baby experiences oliguria, timely symptomatic adjustment or treatment is necessary to avoid delaying the condition.
The frequency of urination for a one month old baby still depends on their physical condition. Some babies drink more water and urinate more frequently, while others drink less water and urinate less frequently. However, as long as it is within the normal range, it is not a problem. I hope parents don't worry too much, but they should also pay attention to their baby's urination problem.
