Yesterday I gave my 26 week old dd (born 6 wks early) her first taste of baby rice really thinned down with ebm and she lapped up about 10-12 baby spoons - success. BUT then at 04.30 this morning I had to change her before continuing the feed as she STANK to high heaven and normally I can't smell anything through cloth nappies. This was followed by 3 more poos that morning and arvo, the final one being bright green!
She has also developed nappy rash overnight and now I've read this could be an allergy or a sign she is not ready developmentally for solids - help! Anyone else had same experience?
She seemed to enjoy eating and has since been watching me eat with interest.
Today I made the rice a bit thicker and she got more on her chin than in her mouth and so far no more explosive poo...before the early morning explosion she hadn't been for 5 days which was unusual as she normally goes every other day. Should I continue or give it a break for a week or so?
Sorry for lengthy message!
