o.k. poor lil dd has started screaming just before she has a poo and my god the result is weird. It's very light yellow thick thick almost powdery paste. She's just shy of six months and we started proper solids last week
i'm presuming there will be a poo change going from ebm and baby rice to broccoli and bananas but she's in so much pain and they look so weird (and the smell oh my god the smell... i suppose i just wondered if it sounds normal? and if i can do anything for her discomfort? oh i forgot the formula she's sipped at formula from a cup just a few ml got in this past two days.

bananas and rice can be constipating. Do you give extra water with the food?

I did but god knows how much actually went down her throat as opposed to down her top.
i'm getting the impression bananas are bad news. do you think that would cause her all that pain? i suppose little bottom has to get used to solids? I gave her some pear puree on a friends advice to help things along. As long as thats all thats wrong with her and nothing too serious. the dark(smelly) side of weaning......
