Breastfeeding poo very runny

2 replies

My baby is 11 days old and has very painful poo episodes that sound like wet farts. The past two days the poo has been really runny but the appropriate colour. He is pooing quite a lot. I'm not sure if it's normal but runny poo, as it looks wetter/more diluted than the pictures online of breastfed poo and there are fewer grainy bits than previously.

He has no fever and settles once he's passed his poo.

Should I be worried about this or is it perfectly normal? My dd has a dairy allergy and I'm concerned that my ds has one too. I don't take much dairy in my diet but have the ocassional biscuit or bowl of cornflakes.

Does he have any other symptoms? It could just be newborn poo, they often look like they don't like it as it's such a new sensation for them.

Congratulations Thanks

Thanks. No other symptoms other than severe discomfort and runny poo.

I'm on paranoid alert as my dd became very ill at 5 weeks due to dairy problems and it started like this.
