13mo Dreadful nappies for over 7 weeks - GP says nothing to worry about

I am so stressed about this. I have already posted about my DS here

I took him to the GP last Friday and GP just said I shouldn't change anything in his diet, but come back in another 6 weeks if nothing has improved.

Today he had an absolute explosion in his nappy - stinky wet and massive (sorry if TMI)

This just doesn't seem normal for a 13mo, and he has definitely had solid poos at some point last year.

His symptoms are the awful nappies and just constant crying/whinging. My CM who has him twice a week also finds the same problems as me.

Can anyone offer advice as to what I can try?

I thought about gluten free/milk free diet?

Thanks mawbroon - I feel so lucky to have had so much support here.

I just had a text from CM to say he is SO much happier today, and that she didn't want to put him down to sleep as he was so happy Smile

Oh and BIG NEWS...

He slept from 6.30pm last night (usual bedtime) to 7.50am this morning. Thats's at LEAST an hour longer than usual.

I love the thought of DS being trained in poo watching Grin

So glad that you seem to have found the cause. May a happy child and solid poo continue!

I also wanted to add dairy intolerance can sometimes do the opposite - constant constipation - perhaps a different element of it?

I agree cargirl, can get constipated too. Really glad you are on good solid form Grin
