Hello,
Do not get scared. There are 2 main explanations:
1. the baby urine pH is acidic. Most probably she is sweating a lot (perhaps it is hot where you live). Make sure she drinks plenty of milk, and give water as extra fluid.
2. She might have candida thrush. Get her stool examined and cultured for candida in order to determine the right diagnosis and start appropriate treatment. Discuss this with her caring doctor to take action now.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
