After My son pooped his meconium he had 9 weeks when he didn’t poop without help and then ever since his poo has been dark green clay like poo.. TMI I know.. but now it is a dark almost metallic coal like colour and thick sticky paste texture is this normal ?

I don't think it is normal, have you seen the HV or GP about this?

Is he breastfed or formula fed? Has he started on solids recently? Have you tried different formulas if you're FF?
