Any advice? DS (aged 5) has super-stinky farts. Why does this happen? And what can we do to make them less disgusting? They're room-clearing at the moment...

What is his diet like? Does he poo enough and are they firm?

Same problem here. I'm blaming the fact that he's started eating onions.

Sorry to be so slow to come back on this.
Poos plenty - eats a pretty good diet, though has always been keener on carbs (and fruit/veg) than meat or fish.

I don't think anything much has changed, apart from him having a lot more ice cream/other summer holiday nonsense.

Recent course of antibiotics?

Could try a pro biotic to see if it is poor digestive function.
