Concerned About My Baby Boys Stool & Urine Smell (1month Old)?

Dehydration is one cause of smelly urine.... are you giving him any water? Also, NEVER give him "baby water".... it contains fluoride, which is NOT good for anyone, much less a new baby. Give him fresh spring water in a bottle, room temperature. Also, babies DO poop right after each meal.... that is the way our bodies are supposed to work. Your baby's feces color is just fine too... at one month it is supposed to be yellow and runny... there are no solids to digest. Is he fussy? Does he cry a lot? These are the things that you must watch for.... babies who are content and feel good usually do not cry much, and sleep 4 hours before eating. As for the diaper rash, get some zinc oxide. Your baby's bottom needs to be cleaned too, not just with water. Find some mild soap to clean him with, let the skin dry well, then apply the zinc oxide. change your baby often.... this might be expensive, but sitting in urine will contribute to the rash. Good luck, new momma.... in no time you will feel confident and be more self assured... the first few months are the hardest!!
