Pissed

I am officially the worst mother in the world. Apparently Lauren has been complaining every time she pees because she has a bladder or urinary tract infection. The initial urine tests at the doctor’s office came back negative a couple days ago, but today the pediatrician called to let me know that they had sent the urine off to a lab that found some sort of infection. Babies are not supposed to get this kind of infection; it is possibly a sign of something worse going on. She may have been feeling a burning sensation every time she pees, thus the immediate desire to be changed. She is now on a course of antibiotics and after the infection is gone she will have some more tests to figure out what is going on.
