Cuddle Rose arrived Thursday, some of you gave me great rehydration advice, etc. She is doing great. We are off the diluted formula, and her first stools started to arrive last night. She is building strength and is more active each day. Her eye issue has cleared up.

HOWEVER... Has anyone encountered a baby, aprox 4 weeks, that does not need stimulating and just urinates on itself? Cuddle Rose seems to urinate on herself when she is sleeping. If I am holding her, she does not leak drops of urine. If I stimulate her, maybe 1-2 drops of urine will emerge. Her groin area is always wet with urine when I get her out to feed her. She reeks of urine. I have to clean her up frequently and I am concerned about urine scald, skin infection, etc.

Her privates seem to protrude, I believe from her lack of muscle & low weight. Perhaps a bladder infection? Defect?

I'm interested in hearing any similar stories, any advice from the experts....any one with thoughts, concerns, ideas! I'm really concerned for this little one.....
