What Causes Cloudy Urine In A Child?

My 3 yr old sons urine looks cloudy. The first couple of drops come out milky while the rest not so much. This has been going on for a while but he is the epitome of a healthy child never complains of pain, eats great and very active.. what could this be?

Pediatrician 's  Response
if the first urine in the morning has some cloudy material , it's either proteins or sediments , if it's not recurrent through the day then there is nothing to worry about , since orthostatic proteinuria is common in children
but if you notice it through out the day , look if there is any swelling in the legs or testis , if so, I recommend doing a urine analysis
I hope this helps
