    Maybe take him back to the GP? Tell them whats been happening? I know when Logan has any sort of medication his bowel movments tend to be 'runny'. Sorry i know im not much help...

    antibiotics can affect wees and poos colour, consistency, regularity etc. But for your peace of mind I'd take him back. Also good to get checked if he allergic to certain antibiotics too...

    Yeah I agree that can be normal after a few days of antibiotics. Its a good idea to get double checked as the fishy smell is a bit worrying. I give my girls probiotics after 3 days on antibiotics as we have big issues having antibiotics in our house. It can stir up things like reflux and cause some troubling intestinal issues. :hugs: its horrible to see them uncomfortable.

    i took him up to the hospital at 7 this morning, they said he has had a reaction to his antibiotics and since i have stopped them he's got like a gastro type thing and the doctor seems to think its the milk thats going straight through him, although he couldnt explain the 'fishy' smell.

    Hope he gets better soon!
