Im not sure im posting this in the right place, but the last two days dd (19 weeks) has had a very runny explosive nappy.

It looks a normal colour and she seems happy enough in herself so is this anything to worry about or am i just being paranoid?

My DS 9mo had, and still has, nasty runny nappies when he is teething a bit (not necessarily cutting teeth, but the teeth moving in the gums also).

I was going to say teething can cause them too.

I blame lots of things on teething - it makes me feel better if I think I know the cause of something!!

Get lots of barrier cream on her and as she seems fine otherwise I'm sure it will settle down soon.

she is definitely teething, not cutting yet but her back teeth have moved into her gums, they are so hard and lumpy now and really causing her some trouble, i guess its good if it is just her teeth though

no solids yet, she can be a little sicky but nothing that has caused me concern it seems more when she has had a really long feed which makes me think the sick is just from over eating
