My DD (6weeks) had an unsettled night and it seemed that she was straining as if was constipated, wriggling, waving arms and legs and trying to push all at the same time. I felt so helpless watching this as cant help her.
Eventually she did manage to go and it looked as normal (am bfing)but just as i was just about to put new nappy on she started to pass alot of poo coloured water.
She seemed happy enough and was even smiling at me but still through the rest of the night she was restless and seemed as if still straining. Passed again in the earlyb hours and it looked normal again.
Today she seems to want to be constantly on the breast, i am happy about this as am a bit worried about dehydration.
Dont know really what has happened and what has caused this. Any ideas anyone and what do i do if happens again tonite?
Am not drinking milk today incase this helps towards diarrea.
