How Often Is It Normal For A Toddler To Urinate In A Day?

Hi - My son is 3 yrs old and is just learning to potty train. He has been peeing in the kids potty for past couple of days now. I m just curious how often is too often for him to pee....this evening, for example, he has had to go pee 3-4 x in the past hour....he does a little each time. Is this normal? How often is too often? I m not sure if he s just playing around or really has to go but he sayys he has to go each tme and does a little each time....

Hello,

Passing small amount of urine at frequent interval may be seen in urinary tract infection. It is also seen in constipation where stool get impacted.

First, ensure adequate liquid intake, look for penile hygiene, if it persist for longer, consider for urine examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sachin Kumar Agarwal
