6 month old poos 4 times in 4 hours (sorry for tmi!)

Slightly worried that my nearly 6 month old DS has pooed 4 times since 3 this morning. Sorry for tmi but the poo at 3 am was so massive that I had to wake DH to help me clean him up but since then, he's done 3 more which are very mucusy. Is this a sign of teething? I've heard of some babies producing funny nappies when a tooth is on the way.

He's doing all the hand chewing, dribbling etc but has been doing that since he was 3 months old and still no tooth has appeared.

Thanks for help!
