Hello.

My lovely EBF 4 month old has suddenly (for the last week) begun pooing all the bloody time! Eight or more per day, when she used to go two days or more between poos!

About half of them are bright or dark green, like chopped coriander. Hmm

Has she suddenly developed an allergy to something I'm eating?

Is it teething? (She doesn't seem to be drooling a lot.)

HV says it could be a virus, but she's not poorly in any other way.

Should I begin eliminating dairy or is this a bit drastic? Help/advice, please! It's cutting short her nighttime sleeps and is sort of becoming a problem, there. Confused

Mine is sane age and we are having same issue. I rang gp today and he says as ds is otherwise fine there is no need to worry. Ds's began after we both had a vomiting bug, although he has also been teething. He was previously a 'one a day' baby

not much fun is it, especially in the middle of the night!
