OK, Tom has been on solids for a month now and I have got used to his firm little poos. They just fall off his nappy into the loo and leave less of a skid mark than his father does.
But the last couple of days we have gone back to newborn type poo...yellow, sweet grassy smelling with little "seeds" in it. Whats with that? Is that normal? Is that now considered diarhoea? I am impatiently waiting for plunketline to call me back. Thanks |

What has he been eating?
Banana? I had a morbid fascination with Fay's poo a while back and this is what babana sounded like. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

Lily's look like that when she eats mushroom or courgette (it is the skin of the courgette i reckon), so it could just be what he is eating.
As to consistency, some food has a higher water content so if there is a new food it could eb that as well. -------------

| Thanks. I am sure it is ok as it smells alright. nothing new in his diet...just boring ol pear and pumpkin but he has wanted more "mummy" lately so perhaps thats it. He's also dribbling heaps so perhaps lots of saliva going down too. |

Ahh, the extra dribbling probably = teeth! And more mummy, can be clingy behaviour which is Lily's teething behaviour - have a feel on the bottom gum at the front, or see if you can see the white patches! -------------

| yeah I think teeting is on the cards as he is biting down on everything...including me but no teeth as yet. |
