different breastfeeding poos

[workin'mumof2]

sorry if tmi but today rubys poos have been....

different as in the colour is darker but still very brown and very very thick. is it because shes older?? nearly 5months

Sorry, I can't really help you as DS's poop has never changed, it's still yellow/brown and very runny.

But I would assume it's all normal, so long as there is poop and she's not constipated or has the runs :)

Hopefully someone might have more help!

Oh - a poo conversation!!! Isn't it funny what becomes normal for us Mums' to chit-chat about :laughing:

Hmm - have you started solids or any kind of medication? Has she been offered any formula top-ups? Or even a new teething gel might affect bubs poos as well. Unless bub is in distress when pooing, then I dont think its anything to worry about.

Ahhh - there it is :) I'm glad she's all back to normal (and hope that your mastitis has cleared up nicely too!!)
