New baby not peeing.

[Peachesmom]

Hubby brought me a baby girl home today, shes about 4 weeks old. She was dehydrated. Ive fed her pedilyte 2 times now, and she hasnt peed for me. Is this normal since she was dehydrated?

This is very normal...... your little one needs 8 to 12 hours of hydration before her little body will be hydrated enough to give you any urine. Just keep up the pedialyte over night and into tomorrow morning then do the pinch test to check for hydration before you start feeding Esbilac with Probiotics with a 1cc syringe at 5-7% of the squirrels body weigjt.

Little girl peed, she has blood in it...what do i do??? Next feeding at 7am...

[Peachesmom]

Off topic...Does your new girl have a white spot of fur on her paw/forearm? That's interesting.

I think its light grey

I took in a little one around that age that had blood in her pee for the first couple of days - she was dog caught and it most likely was the result of an internal injury. There really wasn't anything I could do for that and thankfully she was ok. I will be praying the same for your little girl.

Oh this is so sad.
I wonder if Spanky will take this little angel.
She needs buddies and she'll fit right in with the
other three.

Can you post pictures of the bloody urine and the belly spots?

[Peachesmom]

Dark red was this morning at 7am, light red was at 11 am, she peed alot more at 11am. You can see the little bruise on her right leg.

[Peachesmom]

At 7pm feeding, she peed clear.. Yeah...
Shes eating 5cc every 4 hours...I started her on diluted formula. Shes doing good.
Where the red sore is on her belly, its a little hard under it, hopefully she is healing now...

How much does she weigh?
How and why are you diluting the formula?
Which formula are you using?
