Hi Pinky
I have just a couple of questions if that's OK.
My 9 wk old baby is fully breastfed and over the last couple of weeks she has developed explosive poos that occur around once a day(sometimes twice or not at all), usually during or just after a feed. They can be quite projectile if you happen to be changing her during them! The poos are still mustard yellow in colour and can appear seeded or curdy but are also very runny/watery. She doesn't appear at all distressed by it and I can't think of anything that is different in my diet. She has been putting on weight nicely (at least 200g/wk). Is this normal or should I be worried?
Also re hair perming, I know that you should avoid it during pregnancy due to the chemicals possibly being absorbed but is it safe to have a hair perm whilst you're breastfeeding?
Thanks for answering these questions.
