What Cause Urine Smell Like Poop For 8 Month Old?

My 8 month old son s pee smells like poop. Sometimes it even smells like the meat he ate the night before for dinner. Why would it smell so bad? He nurses about 6 times a day and we started giving him a small amount of water every day (about a tablespoon). He has plenty of wet diapers during the day, but they stink!

She can have some metabolic problems. You perform urine test. If everything is normal, then give urine for chromatography to exclude some generic disease. Wish you and baby good health.
