    Change in poo routine...

    Possibly TMI but here goes!

    Up until almost a week ago, DD used to be pretty regular with her number 2's, normally only one a day of what I would consider 'normal' consistency (not runny but not solid, and a medium brown colour...so sorry for the detail ).

    Now she has 2 or 3 or sometimes 4 pooey nappies a day, they are quite runny and are a bit of a lighter colour, nothing like what she was doing before. is this normal? Thought maybe she might have a slight tummy bug, but she is perfectly fine in all other respects and doesn't seem to be sick and nothing about her behaviour is worrying and we haven't been sick, nor have we been around anyone who is/has been sick.

    So I guess I'm just wondering if it is normal for this to change from what it has been for the last 3 or so months...that's great if it is normal, I don't have to worry! I'm just over rinsing pooey nappies! Sometimes they are quite explosive..although fingers crossed we havent had any leaks yet!

    I seem to remember lots of explosive nappies with ds at that age.

    Is she ff? if so, have you changed her formula? or is she bf? Have you eaten anything different in the last few days? sorry i'm not much help am i lol

    she is FF, haven't changed the formula or how i sterilise or anything like that, as far as I can think nothing has changed lately..could it be to do with starting teething? If she is starting teething..haven't noticed any other signs though. Ahh babies..what fun.

    Never thought I would have a PhD in inspecting poo...lol
