Solid food = Solid poo?

Baby is now almost 9 months old and has been eating solids for 3 months. He still has foul, soft poo's. I can't remember when DS1 started forming more sold poo's. Should I be worried?!

Our LO's poo hasn't really changed in consistency since we've been weaning and we've been weaning for five months now!

Once your baby starts taking solid foods, you’ll notice baby’s poo changes dramatically: it will be firmer, darker and a lot slinkier, too. Eggs, dairy, and meat tend to produce foul-smelling poops. if the colour is Brown, dry, shaped like little rabbit pellets, or quite large and knobby, it may indicate constipation. Urge your child to drink water; increase fibre; introduce apple and prune juices. Certain foods like banana, cheese, large amount of potato, cooked carrot may constipate. If no improvement, then take him to paediatrician.

My baby's poos went from yellow and sludgy to brown and sludgy. Even my toddler doesn't have proper formed poos.
