This is a very common sypmton of oxalate dumping. I work with a lot of mommas who have to eliminate oxalates from their and their children's diets. 
From this blog:
"Then this past spring (after nearly 18 months of GAPS) little J began to tell me that it hurt when she peed. She had already turned 3 and I had been wondering when she would ever master potty learning. When I learned that it hurt to pee (a classic sign of oxalate issues) and I realized that her poopy diapers often looked like they were full of beach sand (another classic sign) I decided to really understand oxalates and commit to a low oxalate diet (LOD) for her sake and my own."

The mum described it as feeling like coarse sand and it wasn't crushable. The 
nappy idea is interesting.Thanks again,Sarah McCann.

Hello Sarah.  I have seen this several (3-4) in my nursing career, and as 
someone just stated, it was the diaper.  The first time many years ago, it 
startled me enough to show a few other nurses, one of whom was very wise and 
stated right away that it was a "poor" diaper.  You  might suggest this to the  
mother since intake and output sound WNL.  Maybe try a new type of 
diaper...maybe she changed recently?  I doubt it was leaving a soiled diaper on 
too long, probably just not the best of diapers.  Good luck and keep us posted!
