Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Losing protein through urine indicates kidney damage and has to be evaluated. Check her blood sugar level as diabetes is the commonest cause for proteinuria. As of now nothing much to worry as the kidney function is with in normal level. Do frequent followup to assure progress.
Wishing you good health.
