    Exclamation Concern re 14wk old poos

    I do have a check up with a child and youth health worker on Friday but really am starting to feel unhappy with my DD's poo colour. She is 14wks old and fully bf.

    There's certainly no lack of it (poo that is!) but I can't seem to work out how to get it the right yellow/mustard colour it should be. Never had this issue with DD#1 so am at a loss.

    It changes from a mixture of yellowy/green, consistency of cottage cheese to quite dark green (same consistency) and then sometimes, really runny. Yesterday for one nappy change it was thin runny and was a mixture of yellow and dark brown......it is constantly changing!

    Should I be really worried???
    It has been happening for quite a while now. It's just, when I have been about to get really concerned, it goes to the right colour and then changes back the following day.

    Also, what consistency should her poos be for a 14wk old?? Runny, firming?? Like I said, never had this issue first time around.........

    Okeedokee! No need to worry now - saw the health worker this morning. It's the pregnancy & breast feeding supplements I am taking that is causing poos to be the colour they are.

    Oh! I am soooooooo relieved!
