For the last 2 or 3 weeks DS hasn't been pooing like he used to. Originally he was a 7.30am pooer, it would be one big one, you know the yellow ones with bits of white through it (sorry if TMI) that require 3 or 4 flannels. But, lately he has been pooing at every nappy change and it is often only a small amount, none of the chunky white bits and usually only requiring 1 flannel a time. Am I worrying over nothing??
Oh and he is BF, no solids as yet -------------

I'd say something could be upsetting him.
Is the consistency the same as normal? If it is I'd not worry about it, if it's not then it could be something ------------- Kel http://lilypie.com">

It is fairly runny, perhaps runnier than it normally was, but there isn't really enough of it in the nappy to guage a consistency as such. Its definately not like the constipated poos he was doing when he was on gaviscon. It is slightly darker than normal too. -------------

I'd say that is a teething sign Tara ------------- http://lilyslim.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Yeah I've had a necklace on him every day since about 3months. Just had a look in his mouth and there are 2 teeth looking very obvious at the front of his gums and yeah his gums have got wider. I'm seeing the nurse at the doctor today so will have a chat to her too JIC Thanks Kel and Renee. -------------
