Kyle's poos are really watery, I didn't notice until he did one with his nappy off but they look like really really dark urine they are that runny but with some of the fatty seedy stuff floating in it. I just thought he was doing small poos but obviously the really liquid part is being soaked into the nappy so wasn't showing.
I'm wondering if this means something, like is he getting too much foremilk?
He has been really unsettled, he feeds well but constantly wants to be at the boob more for comfort than food and makes frequent explosive noises.
I spend a good amount of time burping him.
At that age my girls were all liquid (to the point if she pooed with no nappy it'd spray me and the wall ) So I wouldn't worry, all her nappies had in them looked like a dark stain, sometimes a bit greeny but always quite dark from the last of the meconium she ingested.
Yes my sons poos have been like that also when he was 1st born but it gradually got thicker & less seedy looking and more porridge consistency looking...It sounds normal...
Jody's poos were like that too, they just seemed to slowly get thicker, now they're more like creamy chicken soup thickness.
Isn't it nice to compare poo to food Oh, it's super bright yellow too, like yellow paint, quite pretty really lol
That is normal, from what my midwife told me. I had the same concerns and asked her about it.
I was told it would settle as Lucian gets older. At the moment, they are still watery due to the antibiotics I am on. But the seedy looking bits are normal in a breastfed baby.
Yeah I wasn't worried about the seedy bits as I know there normal and should be there, it was just how runny the rest of it is. Spencer's were always like the bright yellow chicken soup with the seeds in.
He's been a lot more settled the last couple of days so it's probably nothing to worry about.
