Should this concern me??

edited January 2012 in Babies Health
The last two nights my lo has not been peeing at all and doesnt wake up and pee. He went 9 hrs yesterday and 10 hrs today. He does have 6-7 wet diapers a day still but not huge diapers. Just like 2-3 'pees' per. His bm's increase like crazy though this week. From 2 a day to 4 or 5. He doesnt show any signs of dehydration except chapped lips but that could be from sucking his hands. I dont know if I should be worried. (If its important this was his first week at daycare, on constant bottle during day/breast at night and using the frozen breastmilk.)

  • I would say no, only because hes exceeding 3 wet diapers a day and that is what several doctors have told me to look for when dehydration concerns arise. I have had 2 sick children hospitalized for dehydration so they educated me as much as possible. However, I am in no way a medical professional so if you're truly concerned, I would consult his pediatrician just to be safe. Doc may want to have a look for themselves just to ensure all is well. I hope he's alright!
  • No your good my lo does this some nights :)
