Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi Thanks for writing to Healthcare magic.
From your information provided I understand that you are concerned over frequency of passing urine. You do not always require the child to be empty stomach to do blood test for kids. I would suggest please get a Urine RM test done first.
Also keep a watch on water intake of child. Is there fever, difficulty in passing urine, baby crying while passing urine?
Hoping to hear from you.
I find this answer helpful
