Hello,
It could be due to urinary tract infection (UTI). Other conditions like nephrotic syndrome where large amounts of protein is lost through the urine also been ruled out. Consult a pediatrician and get evaluated. A urine analysis must be done to rule out presence of bacteria and protein in the urine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
