    I'm sure it's all normal!
    I almost copped one from Alexander yesterday...
    Do you find it's AFTER they've finished letting off... normally he farts for a good five minutes, i think im safe, and then here comes a little dribbly poo everywhere... We're never really safe are we...

    Give your CHN a ring if you're worried?? But im sure it'll be fine.
    Hope it settles down soon for your walls, carpets and YOUR sake soon.

    Thanks guys,

    Ashnut - there are no farts (she is a dainty girl and there is none of that ) just an explosion of poo!!!

    Had a check up today and the reason that she is doing them is that she is getting rid of excess Breast milk - i guess she is like her Dad, what ever his body doesnt need, he just poo's it out (sorry TMI) which means that he never has a weight change (or very rarely!)

    My dd was like that at the same age and now at 4 month will only poo once a week and it is still explosive normally she will do it in the nappy but it escapes iykwim.

    Love the name by the way my DD is Molly Kate. I nearly had Molly Jane as Jane is my middle name but i've always loved the name Kate.

    Your bubby sounds so normal! Its just the ongoing clean ups that aren't that fun hey?

    I had another explosion yesterday, and my DD is 4 months old! I heard some rumblings while she was feeding, and when I moved her, it was all over my tshirt, pants, her clothes and the pillow she was lying on!
