Reasons for yellow urine in six-month-old babies

Many parents are particularly worried when their six-month-old babies have yellow urine, because if babies in this period have yellow urine, it means that their children have a disease in their bodies. Therefore, many parents want to fully understand the cause of yellow urine. The following content makes a detailed introduction, so many parents can have a comprehensive understanding.

There are two reasons why baby's urine is yellow: one is physiological; the other is pathological. The pathological condition is that the urine is always yellow and needs treatment. If it is indirect, it means that the child has a high fever and needs some time to cool down.

1. Physiological yellow urine.

Yellow urine is one of the typical symptoms of a baby getting angry. Children have a faster metabolism, but their digestive system is immature. The secretion of gastric acid and digestive enzymes is less, and the activity of digestive enzymes is low. They cannot withstand large changes in dietary substances and quantities, which can easily cause "internal heat", commonly known as getting angry in traditional Chinese medicine. Improper diet or improper feeding methods can cause yellow urine.

2. Pathological yellow urine.

Urinary tract infection can cause yellow urine, but urinary tract symptoms are not obvious in newborns and infants under one year old. Most children only experience fever, reluctance to eat, pale complexion, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal distension and other systemic symptoms that are not caused by urinary tract infection. If you find that your baby cries when urinating, or has frequent urination or persistent diaper rash, there may be an infection of the urinary organs. You should see a doctor as soon as possible and have a regular urine test.

Methods for treating and preventing physiological yellow urine:

1. Drink more water:

Babies need a lot of water every day, and the amount of water each time they are fed is about half of the amount of milk per meal: 30 ml in the first week after birth; 45 ml in the second week; 50-60 ml after 1 month; 60-75 ml at 3 months; 70-80 ml at 4 months; 80-100 ml at 6 months; 100-120 ml at 8-12 months. The amount of water should be increased appropriately in summer.

2. Regulate internal heat

Choose breastfeeding whenever possible. For babies who drink high-calorie foods such as formula milk and fresh milk for a long time, you can choose plant-based heat-clearing products that are both medicinal and edible to relieve the symptoms of yellow urine caused by internal heat, achieving the heat-reducing effect of "one clear, two moisturizing, and three comfortable". Products such as Meiban's "Qingqingbao" are safe and have no side effects. Mixing it with milk or directly using warm water can achieve the effect of balancing the calorie intake from food, gently reducing heat without being too cold. Be careful to choose fire-clearing products that are trustworthy and have a good reputation.

The above content has given a comprehensive introduction to the reasons why six-month-old babies have yellow urine. I believe that many parents also have a comprehensive understanding of the reasons why six-month-old babies have yellow urine. Therefore, after a comprehensive understanding, it is best to take the child to a large hospital and through comprehensive treatment, let the child’s urination return to normal as soon as possible, which will be beneficial to the normal growth of your child.
