I took Henri to the Dr's this morning as he has a strong urine smell which is really unpleasant. Anyway they said it could be down to him teething (we have 6 coming through at the top) or he could have an infection but they would like a sample! how do you get a 17 mth old to do one? They have given me a bag which sticks on, he fills it but as soon as he stands up then falls back down it all comes out and the bag falls off, I have even tried to restick it back on and I have even tried sitting him on the potty before and after bath time but still joy. I have been trying to get one since 10.30 this morning, I hear you all laughing even thinking of me trying to get one makes me laugh. Any ideas I can try tomorrow.

;)Im not laughing.!!! I had to use one of the stick on bags when luke was little and we had problems I can't remember what we did now as it was so long ago. I do remember that i only managed a couple of drips and it was suffiicent for them to do a dipstick test with. Good luck x

hi anita we had the same problem the health visitor gave me a special sanitary towel thingy and a syringe to drain the pee out unfortunately it didnt quite work, one tip they gave me was to make sure the area is completely dry and let him run around with just the bag on, that did work for us eventually, sorry cant help further love shell,charlie and jasmin xxxxxxx

We managed to reuse the bag, but had to get some new tape (not gaffa tape) and Henri didn't appreciate it, he kept pulling it off but we managed a small sample and that's all that matters.
