Baby girls only been getting about 2 wet diapers a day for the past 2-3 days - went to the er last night and they said to give pedialyte. No change today, should I go back? I’m worried
Nope. Not a single drop at night, but she gets up to nurse 2-3x a night so she doesn’t get into that deep of a sleep. I normally have to change her at least once. And then her diapers just dramatically declined during the day.
@_sheriee, no, they gave her 140ml of fluids because her bloodwork came back good so we’re just hoping for 2 more diapers today
My pediatrician only has an on call nurse that will tell you to go to the er if you think you need to
@lorany, right. That’s what you need to know, if you need an ER or you can wait to see them.
@sweetsap88, she’s drinking from my boob as well as drinking the pedialyte, her mouth is wet, she’s drooling and tears come out when she’s crying. So I believe she’s getting enough fluids, I’m just not sure why she’s not making diapers
@lorany ok, will you be taking her back to the er tonight? I'd be worried about the diapers too. I don't know a lot, so I'd be thinking she's hydrated enough that she can make tears and keep her mouth wet, but not enough to put out diapers. I'm not sure if that's how it works though :( sorry mama
@sweetsap88, yeah I’m going to be going back, I feel terrible for exposing her to er germs 2 nights in a row, but I’m going to be going to a children’s er today so hopefully they tell me more than just ‘give her pedialyte’ thank you so much
Is she not going at night or just not going at all? My daughter wouldn’t go at night for a while. Doctors told me it was normal since she was in a deep sleep.
