about my toddler

This isnt about my pregnancy but my toddler im really worried and want to here from other moms. So my 2 1/2 yr old has went 24hrs and only urinated once and pooed only twice this week he is doin just fine playing drinking eating sleeping everything he just wont pee. And the one time he did it was really yellow. Called doc but they havent called back should I be worried???

Milk causes constipation, so stay away from dairy until he poops. As for urinating, he should be urinating at least once every 8 hours. Any less than that is a sign of significant dehydration and should be addressed by a physician.

Try giving some pedialite just make sure he is not dehydrated. As long as his fluid intake is good I wouldn't worry. My toddler son stops eating & drinking right before he gets strep throat, try asking him if his throat hurts. It's hard to get a definite answer when they are so little but watch for that.

Take him to the hospital, This happens to my little brother for him he was scared of peeing sense it would burn. I took him to the hospital and they had to use a catheder. He was out in like two hours.

Really yellow, more water intake, could be dehydrated & experiencing some constipation. Milk helps promotes bowel movement & prune. I'd take medical help & not wait to long if it doesn't work. Hope this helped

Try not to be to worried in from of him but I'd he doesn't start peeing in Lil 24 I would take him in. Just to be safe. My 2 1/2 ur old once went threw that and it was a simple ear infection that was causeing his body to go out of wake
