Poop question (yet another one!)
DD (nearly 8 months) has been off-colour for about a week. Last Wednesday
she refused to nurse, and was off solids. Thursday she decided to nurse again, but half-heartedly, and Friday she was back to full on nursing. A week later, she is willing to take solids again, but only small amounts. But, she is doing really nasty slimey-not-one-iota-of-curds-or-formed-stuff poops. She is also down to once a day (from 3-4 times a day before she got her cold and whatever else it was). If she had a tummy upset (likely, given I had one), should I give her milk only until her poops regain some form of normality? She is quite happy on milk only - solids are still just a plaything for her. Thanks for any advice, Cathy |

Thanks for any advice, Cathy Oops, I should have added that her poop seems to be really burning her bottom, which is another reason I am concerned. She 'went' overnight a few days ago, and it seemed to literally burn a hole in her skin. Luckily that has just about healed now, but the poor thing was in pain for a while. Cathy |

Make it milk only for a week, then see how she is. -- Chookie -- Sydney, Australia (Replace "foulspambegone" with "optushome" to reply) "...children should continue to be breastfed... for up to two years of age or beyond." -- Innocenti Declaration, Florence, 1 August 1990 |

Today she seems much better - back to good old curdles, so I feel much happier. Back to solids tomorrow I suspect, as it has been a week now of basically milk only. Cathy |
