orange colour in wet nappy?? normal??

I'm on the go, but I think from memory my boys had it too and it's normal. I'm sure someone will be in with more info. xo

The orange stain, called urates, is quite common in the first few days of life. It is usually related to the small amounts of fluid your baby drinks. However at 11 weeks old I would not expect to see this orange stain and it could be an indication that your baby is not getting enough fluid. An easy way to check if your baby is getting enough fluid is to count the number of wet nappies. If you are getting less than 6 a day you may need to increase the amount of milk you are giving your baby.
