breastfed baby - seedy bits have gone. Does anyone know why?

My 12 week olds poo isn't containing seedy bits anymore. Also more runny and a bit darker. Does anyone know why? He's exclusively breastfed.

I believe the 'seedy bits' (and I know exactly what you mean) are undigested milk curds. I'm sure someone will tell me if I'm wrong but it could mean that your babe's digestive system is getting a bit more efficient! I'm assuming he isn't poorly, still has lots of wet nappies (ie isn't dehydrated) etc etc?

I know what you mean too - my dd's poo went from being like Dijon mustard to a runnier version of English mustard! It didn't seem to signify a problem
