Did you end up getting a second opinion? Sending *healthy* thoughts your way. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1260944 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 08:44:44 +0000 Mrs squirreld 1260944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: @MapleMoose: thanks I really felt like that doctor was brushing us off. :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1260840 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 07:21:23 +0000 MapleMoose 1260840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: Can't hurt to get that second opinion. Hang in there mama, you're doing a fantastic job! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1260818 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 06:42:59 +0000 swedishfish 1260818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It definitely doesn't hurt to get a second opinion. You are your child's advocate. I hope everything is fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1260769 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 05:32:56 +0000 Mrs squirreld 1260769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just an update... The results are back. No UTI which is great but there was a trace of blood present in the urine. The doctor said if he has no other symptoms don't worry it could have been from his diaper rash ( ummm there was no broken skin and he wasnt the same doctor that saw it) we are going to get a second opinion. I don't think blood in the urine is something to brush off? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1251074 Sat, 30 Nov 2013 10:47:38 +0000 marionberry 1251074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: That must be stressful but try not to worry. My friend's baby had a UTI and while they don't feel well, with some antibiotics it goes right away. Praying for good news! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250851 Sat, 30 Nov 2013 00:45:43 +0000 Mrs squirreld 1250851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMagpie: thanks... I'm telling myself it will be fine cause I don't know how to deal with the alternative. But I'm sure it will be nothing :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250849 Sat, 30 Nov 2013 00:43:20 +0000 MamaMagpie 1250849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: ugh not getting answers/reassurance right away is so frustrating, I'm sorry :( I hope everything turns out to be fine, just a random thing. I know I'd be worried sick so I don't want to minimize, but I'm sure he will be just fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250843 Sat, 30 Nov 2013 00:20:10 +0000 lamariniere 1250843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When DS was maybe 3 months I somehow accidentally pinched his penis in the diaper (still not at all sure how it happened, but he yelped a little when I put the diaper on), and it left a few spots of blood in the diaper when I went to change him. I freaked out when I saw the blood, but figured out what had happened and that was the end of it. I hope your little guy is ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250836 Sat, 30 Nov 2013 00:03:51 +0000 Mrs squirreld 1250836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: @coastmama: @cmomma17: @Pepper: @MamaMagpie: @bluestriped bee: @MapleMoose: </p> <p>Doctor said it does looks like blood, but couldn't be 100% without tests. So we have to collect a urine sample and send it away for testing which can take 3-4 days. Urgh! If it gets worse or his condition changes we are to take him to ER. She did says physically he looks fine, he's alert, no fever etc. It could be a UTI and if it is he will have to undergo further testing as it is rare for babies this young to have them. Sooooo basically we don't know anything. He has done a few wees since and there hasn't been any blood... So yeah I still don't know anything and won't until his results are back. :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250794 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 23:04:50 +0000 MapleMoose 1250794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope your baby is alright. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250780 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 22:47:25 +0000 BSB 1250780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: So what did the Dr say? Hope your LO is okay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250772 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 22:36:01 +0000 MamaMagpie 1250772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>H had that happen early on and I freaked out. We took him in to see the doctor that day and showed them the diaper (disposable) and it turned out it was sediment in his urine, called "brick dust" because it's the color of bricks. So weird and so terrifying.<br /> Keep us posted! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250743 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 21:55:07 +0000 coastmama 1250743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: It was a disposable diaper.... We don't have any experience with cloth so I'm not sure if the same thing could happen. Hope everything turns out ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250673 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 20:56:30 +0000 Mrs squirreld 1250673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: @cmomma17: @Pepper: thanks ladies. @coastmama: thanks - was it a cloth or disposable diaper? He's in cloth, not sure that "filters" it in anyway? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250671 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 20:53:51 +0000 Pepper 1250671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope everything is ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250667 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 20:50:47 +0000 cmomma17 1250667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thinking of you!

We brought in the diaper, and then they put a little bag on him so that they could collect his urine. Turns out it was the way that the diaper filtered sediment in his urine. It wasn't even blood.... although it looked just like a dot of blood to me. It ended up being nothing at all. He did it a few more times.... but hasn't done it in months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250651 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 20:44:12 +0000 swedishfish 1250651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No but I hope everything is ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-in-infant-urine#post-1250616 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 20:25:25 +0000 Mrs squirreld 1250616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone had any experiences with this? LO is 10 weeks old and at the past nappy change there was what looked like blood in his diaper. I rang health direct (which is a 24hr medical advice line here) and they said to see a doctor. I have an appt in an hour but meanwhile I am freaking out. Anyone have a similar experience/idea what it might be? He isn't dehydrated, doesn't have a fever. </p>
