My baby is four months old and passing urine every 10 minutes. Her father means my husband is diabetic ..
She was born with 3 kg weight and now she is 6 kg.

Is there any possibility of diabetes for her?

Possible but not likely
by: Baby Help Line

Hi Shikha!

Unless your baby is very thirsty, tired and maybe has started to loose some weight, she is not likely to have diabetes.

If anything is wrong with her, a urinary tract infection (UTI) is probably more likely.

However, since diabetes is such a serious condition, I think you should take your daughter to a doctor. Then she can easily be checked for both diabetes and UTI, through blood and urine tests.

I really hope there is nothing to be concerned about. Wish you good luck!

nothing to worry

no they didnt told anything only urine test were all fine so dr doent showed any interest in diabetes but for peeing a lot there are number of factors she told like mother's milk having lots of water or small uterus or some urinary infection.
i dont know what was the reason but now my daughter is 2 year old and she is not having this problem
