Just wondering if anyone has any advice for me. My DD who is 2.5 has had very runny/slightly explosive poos for a couple is weeks now. She is potty trained but still wears pull ups at night and the last 2 mornings has done a very runny poo in her pull ups. She has been on antibiotics for a ear infection (finished those on Thursday) which I know can upset them but she has had similar problems before so I'm wondering if it's something else?! I have taken her to the docs before about it and they told me to get a poo sample tested, but that they 'only test watery diarrhoea' which it isn't, so I thought no point doing a sample if they won't test it. Any ideas what could be causing this? She does love her fruit and veg, maybe I'm giving her too much? Sorry for long post!

whats her diet like? when mine had this kind of problem and have been to the docs and they've said its not anything worrying, then I cut down on fruit for a couple of days and it went back to normal.

She does eat a lot of fruit and veg because she won't eat much bread and cereals etc. I'll try cutting it right down today, thanks for your reply Smile

even alot of dairy can give them an unsettled tum, I'd try for dry-ish food for 24hrs see if it helps? best wishes
