Pink spot in diaper.

Ashlyn
My LO has had a small pink spot in her wet diapers. It's probably happened 3 times in the last 2 weeks. She is 9 weeks old. Anybody know what this is?

That happened when my daughter was first born.. I was told it's okay and it wasn't blood, it's been 2 years and I don't remember what it's called but anyway the nurse said it was okay and patially due to her body adjusting to being.. you know her own. And her body adjusting to not being affected by my hormones and things like that...But for her to be 9 weeks, I would take her into the doctor to been seen. Even keep a dirty diaper that has it to show them what you're talking about (unless it happens everytime you change her than I wouldn't worry about bringing it)Hope everytime turns out okay!

Take the baby with that diaper to ER so the doctor can see what u talking about, something is not right

I had the same thing and this is what the doctor told us! —->That looks like urate crystals, which is normal and probably related to going a long period without nursing.Here’s what our diaper looks like and our baby is 2 months!

I got told by my midwife because of the hormones baby girls can bleed like a period sort after birth, it's completely normal☺️

This happened to my son and I took him into his pedi and they said it was probably just from crystals in the urine. But it's always safe to check!!

It is blood, and it's normal. She has your hormones running through her body still so spotting is completely normal for girls I. The first few months. Talk to your dr about it or a doula. A doula is who told me about it and I'm glad because I would be freaking out. I'm having a little girl in July.

Diapers have chemicals that are released onto babys skin to absorb the pee so maybe switch to a brand with less chemicals? The chemicals can cause bleeding so if youre using huggies or pampers those are the worst.
