Why doesn't my 2-month-old urinate at night?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Lack of nighttime urination in 2-month-olds is actually quite common and usually a normal developmental trait. During daytime feeding is more frequent and amounts are larger naturally, so kidneys are more active during the day. Babies sleep deeper at night, metabolism slows, and kidneys temporarily reduce urine production. It's also important to ensure your baby is getting adequate breast milk or formula during the day; if daytime feeding is good, having a completely dry diaper for 4-6 hours at night is considered normal in many 2-month-olds.

However, if your baby has fever, fussiness, vomiting, feeding refusal, or diaper stays completely dry for longer than 8 hours, there's a dehydration risk and you should consult your pediatrician.
