Fenugreek / domperidone and runny poos?

After problems feeding ds and poor weight gain, I started taking fenugreek at the midwives suggestion. After a while I noticed he was getting very runny poos so I stopped and switched to domperidone from my gp. Now a week or so after starting, he is getting runny poos again. Can the fenugreek / domperidone have this side effect or is it just coincidence?

It is more than just the usual breastfed pop runny I think - watery and explosive.

If I take neither his poo seems normal but he is miserable - crying after feeds, unsatisfied, sucking on sore and empty breasts.

I think it so few MNers will have experience you might do better phoning one of the helplines while you wait for replies on here. The NCT helpline is open till 10 pm 0300 330 0771.
