Question

A three-month-old baby has had a particularly low urine output today. Is this normal? The baby is breastfed and peed only once in the afternoon, with the urine color being rather yellow. A little water was given between two feedings.

Answer

Based on the situation you described, if the urine color is yellow, it might be due to insufficient fluid intake. It is recommended to increase fluid intake, but generally, it is not advised to give extra water to babies under six months old. It is suggested to change diapers more frequently. Typically, a three-month-old baby should urinate 6 to 7 times a day, with each urination about 100 milliliters.
