DD is 6 and a half months now. We've travelling overseas (Spain), and we started solids about 3 or 4 weeks ago. She's had a variety of things to eat (doing baby-led-solids): vegies, fruit, bread, a piece of ham to suck, etc. Some of the food has been cooked, some uncooked. Some of it is actually starting to do down, I think, as she learns how to handle her food.

She's breastfed.

She's had really runny poos now for a couple of weeks. We're having nappy-leakage all over the place. She's pooing big a couple of times a day, and small a few times a day (kinda like a wet fart more than anything else). At first I thought it was her adapting to solids, but it's going on and on.

Is this normal?

I'm getting a bit worried that maybe she has some kind of gastro bug. It would be mild, because she doesn't have a temperature. Where we are, it is cool but very dry climate, so I'm worrying about her becoming dehydrated. Her fontanelle hasn't been sunken or anything (or not more than usual), but I'm not sure how else I'd know.

She is more or less cheerful, but fussier than usual. I put it down to a "wonder week". Maybe it's something else?

Am I being paranoid or should I start to worrry? It would be a hassle to get her to a doctor here. I'm disinclined to do so unless she seems otherwise sick. But these really sloppy poos have gone on for longer than I'd have expected.

How long would you let a bf bub go with really runny poos for before you worried?
