hello all
a lovely topic for a sunday evening...
dd is 10wks tomorrow and is exclusively b/f. for the last week or so she has had very green poo ranging in colour from spinach to bright pea green. it also looks rather mucousy to me.
my first thought was that somehow she is not getting enough hind-milk, but - she is happily going 3-4 hrs between feeds in the day, sleeps from 7pm to past 6am, is generally calm and happy, alert when awake, able to "concentrate" on my face or her mobiles, seems to be meeting her developmental milestones - in fact seems completely normal. she passes a lot of wind, but never seems to be made uncomfortable by it.
i have spoken to the NCT BF helpline, but the counsellor was as flummoxed as i am.
i would appreciate help from wise mumsnetters on this - should i be worrying about her liver or gut (or other things that it has not occurred to me to worry about yet?)
TIA
