My 6 week old ds was ebf until just over a week ago when I started to inyroduce 1 formula bottle a day, until wednesday this week he was having 5 or 6 dirty nappies a day. He last pooed on wednesday afternoon, he has still been having wet nappies regularly. Should I be worried?

I think that's quite normal. Don't be worried just yet, especially if DS is not in pain. Why introduce formula though? You might compromise your milk supply in the long term. Much better to express. I know it's a pain but is worth the effort.

Hi thanks for reply! I was expressing and getting lots I then got mastitis and recovered well but could no longer express. I wanted ds to continue having a bottle so dp could feed him and so I could take dd to swimming and ballet lessons and leave ds with dp. Keep tryin to express and managing small amount.
