I know in the early days you get a pooey nappy almost every change but I've read lots of comments that breastfed babies sometimes only have a poo every few days. When does it change from the all the time thing to the every few days thing? DD3 is pooing less and less, but she seems to really uncomfortable before each one - lots of squirming, little cries and grunts which can go on for an hour or two. When it finally comes its mustard yellow and most very much liquid but with some "chunky" bits in it (sorry - hope nobody's eating!). There is a lot of wind that comes with it too. Poor little thing seems to be kept awake or is woken by all the squirming and what looks to me like discomfort.

Is this normal? I have no experience with a "normal" breastfed baby so don't know if she has a problem or if its just what they do.

Thanks.
