    painful poos?

    DS2 is one week old today. for the last 3 or 4 days (since my milk came in) his poos are causing him quite a bit of discomfort. he tends to have one at most BF's (so 6 or 8 a day). They're quite small and mostly mustard coloured now, but we are still getting the occassional greenish one... Just wondering if the discomfort is normal? I dont remember DS1 doing this, but that doesn't mean he didn't LOL.

    TIA

    This is pretty common hun. It can seem like they are in discomfort but it is all part of them getting used to the sensations. Usually it settles down after the first weeks.

    Thanks MR, was hoping that was the case.
