Urine smell...

in Parenting after a Loss
Does your kids urine smell? My mom mentioned it to me that it was weird that she could smell my DS's urine. She wanted me to mention it to my doctor to rule out an infection. This is the first I've heard of that...it doesn't smell "bad" but I do notice it if I lift him up and smell before a diaper change. Is that normal or is it not supposed to smell?

    What kind of diapers do you use? I always think disposables stink when wet. With CDs it's usually an issue with the diapers not being clean enough.
    I use pampers so that might be...it smells like urine mixed with the disposable diaper baby powder smell lol. I thought it was normal so she took me by surprise when she said baby urine doesn't really smell.

    I notice this all the time with DS1 when he has a really full diaper.. we also use pampers (cruisers).. he drinks like a fish, and pees a ton, so I've never really thought anything of it?

    Urine has an odor intrinsically, no? I don't know why anyone would be surprised to smell something that has an odor. Sounds normal to me.

    I can smell urine with DS. I always just thought I had a strong sniffer for it. I've never considered it an issue.

    I use Kirkland Brand (from Costco) as well as Pampers Swaddlers. I switch between the two throughout the day and I notice when I use the Kirkland diapers, I can really smell the urine even through her pants, it's really strong. The pampers I don't really smell anything. So, it could be the diaper you're using? Have you tried other brands to see if it might be a reaction with the pee and the actual diaper?
