Hello parent!
Urate crystals are common in first few months of life and are usually because of a concentrated urine. They can also cause the diaper to have pinkish or orange stain too.
Please take care that the baby is feeding well, exclusive breast feeding in first 6 months of life. Water can be offered later on. If baby refuses bottle you can offer feeds through a spoon or paladi.
Monitor weight and check that baby passes urine frequently - at least 6-8 wet diapers a day
Next Steps
Hydration is important
Monitor weight
