Baby girls are especially prone to urinary tract infections while they are in diaper. Moreover it is really very difficult to take urinary samples before they are toilet trained. If you keep in mind that they can't express their symptoms, I'm sure I'd like to keep a couple of tests ready at home when my daughter was young (now 7). Good luck!

Thank you for sharing––we've gotten a handful of inquiries from parents asking if they can use the UTI test kit to identify UTI in babies/children. Anyone is able to test with Scanwell, but we can only direct those over 18 to treatment via telehealth. Nonetheless, we see Scanwell being a useful tool for parents in similar situations to yours––simply knowing, before heading to the emergency room, can bring peace of mind to new parents and parents of younger children.
