Dd - 8 weeks has been poorly with fevers - flu? And me too. Last night she was writhing around in pain for 2 hours and then produced a formed poo like a large stone. She is ebf but has had a couple of doses of calpol. What caused this odd poo - should I drink more/ give her some water. I really don't want to see her in pain again. Her nappies have still been wet since fever so I thought I was doing well with keeping her hydrated.

*gluttom - that's unusual and prob one for your health visitor to discuss.

Drinking more yourself will have no effect on her gut or your milk. Water is not appropriate for an 8 week old baby.

Maybe it's a reaction to the calpol, who knows.....but it does need checking out.
