Expressed milk causing green nappies/ upset tummy?

[icclemunchy]

Anyone had any experience of this? Is it even possible? DD is 8.5 months and bf, we blw and she eats 3 good meals a day and snacks if she wants them but since Monday afternoon she's been having some awful nappies, either dark yellowy and quite mucusy looking or green and stringy.

The only thing I can thing that's changed is she had one bottle of frozen bm on Sunday and two on Monday. I thought it was all cleared up this morning but she had a bottle of milk I expressed Monday (not frozen this time) and her nappy was green again

She would usually have one bottle on a mon,wed and Thursday with the cm but this is the first time we've had this problem. She hasn't eaten anything she's not had before and she seems well in herself except a lot of wind so I don't think she's I'll either.

She doesn't seem to be in any particular discomfort except a couple of seconds of whinging before farting or pooing so I'm at a bit of a loss really

All babies have green poos, all babies have stringy poos, all babies have muscussy poo.....at some time and on some occasions :) It does not necessarily mean a tummy upset, but it can mean the baby is fighting off an infection. Green poo just means the poo has gone through more quickly, and this might be a slightly different 'balance' of milk in the ebm.....but honestly, it doesn;t matter unless the baby is ill and your little dd is not ill :)

A quick call to your HV tomorrow should reassure you on this.

You haven't met my HV apparently DD should only be having bm at breakfast and before bed and even then only if I'm determined to still feed her

So do I avoid giving her expressed milk untill it clears up or just carry on? I can avoid it without too much stress

Could it be teeth? My ds gets mucousy nappies when teething x

Possibly, she's quite drooly although she always has been

I would put this down to teeth!

I only know this coincides with teeth for my ds as he's never dribbly any other time, you could try teething powder it seems to dry up the extra wetness for my lb both dribble and nappy x

My dd used to get green poos every time she teethed. It doesn't now she's a bit older but happened loads when she was younger. She's always been breastfed and not had expressed milk. I really think this is a teething thing that lots of baby's go through (judging by forums) but that hv etc don't seem to acknowledge!
