Hi, my baby boy is 4 months old, weighs 7.5kg, 65 cm. (birth weight:3.25 kg, 50 cm height). His urine frequency is very high. He passes stools 1-2 times a day, but pees almost 20 times in a day. Usually after feeds he pees every 10 -15 mins. Is this normal? Should I be worried ? Kindly advise. FYI, He is mostly on formula feed. Thanks

Greetings
Your baby's frequent urination is entirely normal because his bladder is very small and an all-liquid formula diet creates high fluid turnover.His exceptional growth from 3.25 kg to 7.5 kg proves he is thriving and absorbing his nutrients perfectly.Peeing every 10 to 15 minutes after a feeding is a healthy, automatic reflex triggered by his stomach stretching.
