Hi All,
I need your help. My 5 weeks old baby poops (liquid) little every now and then there are actual bowel movement. Should I change the diaper and clean his bum every time he does very little?

Pls help!

Thanks!

Hiya.

Sorry but what do you mean by poops a little liquid? Do you mean a loose bowel movement?

Hi Anais. No, it's not loose bowel movement. But he tends to poop little while passing wind. So I was wondering if I should change the nappy each time.. He has nappy thrush on his bottom too..

Ah I see. I would change it every time to be honest especially if he is a little sore. Obviously its up to you but that's what I would do Smile

If you are worried about the amount of nappies you are getting through, you could always use a disposable liner to catch the wet fart and then you might be able to keep the same nappy on.
