My DD has a temperature and no other symptoms. When she was 1yo, she had a urinary tract infection. She was catheterized numerous times during that time to diagnose it, check it, and then to ensure that she didn't have reflux or other associated issues. This time, I think it may be another uti, but I don't want her to go through the pain and trauma of another catheter. The doctor said that if I could get a clean urine sample, DD wouldn't have to be catheterized. So the question is: How do you get a clean urine sample from a 2 year old girl who is not potty-trained?? The doctor said to try to get her to pee into a clean container after wiping her. Sounds easy, but I don't think it will be so.
