No: Normal urine smells like urine. If something in the diaper keeps smelling like sugar, the parents should take the diaper and the baby in to see the doctor.

May be: The urinary smell depend upon many factors . It is well known that urine takes on the smell of the food you eat- asparagus is good example. Many medications impart their own smell- Ampicillin is the good example. Diseases like diabetese can cause a sweet odor . Many urinary tract infections cause their peculiar smells .There is no such thing as normal urine smell- there is no odor when fresh.Zk.
