Thanks for the info.

6!! Eeek, I hope your DH/DP shares the 'load' (mind the pun)? I hope it settles down for you.

The worst part is the sore bum part, I would say do some nappy off time but that could get very interesting ]]> Sat, 31 Oct 2009 21:28:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=821890&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#821890 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=821868&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#821868 Author: fire_engine

There is something called toddler diaorhrea (sp) where toddlers go through a phase of many runny poos. She said to get the tests done and come back in a week if he's still really pooey. She didn't really go into what was normal but did say that that amount of poos isn't normal (and his pooing has increased over the last 2 months which is why she wants to keep an eye on it). Only 6 today ]]> Sat, 31 Oct 2009 21:12:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=821868&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#821868 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=821737&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#821737 Author: Twinboys2b

Flissty: what did the Dr. say was 'normal' if there is such a thing or more like when did she/he say you should be concerned?

I thought Jacob was 'normal' in that department but now I'm not sure. He usually does 4 - 6 a day but I thought that was because he eats like a pig and 1 or 2 are always nasty smelling. I had a week of 6-8 a day which wasn't fun. They're never solid but I put that down to still having heaps of formula. Eli's usually doing 2-4 a day.

I will be interested to hear what the Dr/ comes back with.

Jackson is normally once a day, but there wasn't much going in so not much coming out, I guess!

He's eating a little better now, so we often get two a day. They're still everywhere poos.... he still consumes mostly formula and yoghurt, so I expect that's the reason.

Four a day seems a lot, but reading through these replies it doesn't seem so unusual. I can see how you're over it though!]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:47:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=821266&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#821266 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819823&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819823 Author: mumzrule

At the start of this post it sounded just like Lilly. The day I had Willow she started doing poos, poos and more poos, and they were disgusting. She was a once a day girl.
But for Lilly I'm pretty sure it was just from her two year old molers coming through.

Hopefully the doctor will be able to sort it out for you.]]> Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:27:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819823&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819823 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819664&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819664 Author: kabe

1 a day, sometimes none here.

I agree with cuppatea. i think it's worth talking to your GP and perhaps getting him tested. Before my daughters allergies were identified, every nappy change was a dirty one and required a clothing change. It's amazing what a difference cutting out dairy made!]]> Thu, 29 Oct 2009 11:35:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819664&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819664 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819344&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819344 Author: fire_engine

My friend took her little boy to see our allergy paed just cos she was sick of the gross cake mixture poos and it turned out he is gluten intolerant, he's been gluten free for about a year now (is same age as Spencer) and he only does gross poos if he accidentally eats something with gluten.
He didn't have any other symptoms and the paed didn't think he had it but did a blood test just in case and his anti bodies were super super high. Not trying to worry you or anything but it is worth pursing it. They can skin prick test for things like dairy, bananas etc which is totally painless for them and only takes 10 mins and most of that is waiting for any reaction to happen and the gluten one has to be blood test which isn't very nice but Spencer had one and he was over it as soon as the needle came out, was just me who was left shaken ]]> Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:37:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819331&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819331 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=819203&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#819203 Author: fire_engine

Horrid cake mixture type poos can be a sign of an intolerance or allergy so talking to your gp about that is probably a good place to start.

Spencer generally goes once a day, his use to be rolly offy but since a stomach bug 3 months ago they have been, in my DH's words, "a river of sh*t" Apparently it can take months for their tummies to come right after a stomach bug am so hoping it happens soon cos even one a day is hideous to deal with.

If you cook with lots of tomatoes swap to the low acid ones and that might help with the sore bum, lots of bum off time as well (although a bit dangerous in your house when he goes so many times).

Chloe sounds similar, she's around a 4 a day girl. She only gets REALLY rashy around teething time or if she eaten a lot of citrus or something, but we smother her bum in bepanthan after every change.

I don't think Chloe has ever had a rolly offy poo (is that the technical term, lol). Hers are always sticky and EVERYWHERE. (TMI!)

ETA: She has a pretty fibrous diet though! A lot of fruit and veg and stuff.

GPs aren't much help when it come to food intolerances in my experience (and I've had ALOT of experience!!!) I'd recommend checking out the elimination diet or googling for extra info on what you should experimentally remove from his diet.
If you're concerned about possible food intolerances then try keeping a food and poop diary and it might show you a pattern GL!]]> Wed, 28 Oct 2009 11:47:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=818595&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#818595 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=818379&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#818379 Author: kebakat

Put curash on his butt!

But you could be on the right track re diet. We go from only one poo a day to almost every nappy if I introduce something that doesn't agree!

BUT consistency of it as well...is it a major mess or is it rolly offy IYKWIM. Rolly offy might just mean he's a pooer lol if not will possibly be something in his diet.

For a start look at the amount of acidic ie tomato stuff he has.

Not bothering with a TMI warning cos the subject says it all.

Daniel is a prolific pooer - 7 today, 6 yesterday. His bum is red and sore and he (and we) dread nappy changes. Normal is about 4. Occasionally we have a day with no poos but spend the day dreading the poosplosion.

I'm starting to wonder if he's got an intolerance but don't want to mess with his diet without seeing the GP. It feels a bit weird going in saying "Daniel poos heaps. Is he normal?" He's sustaining weight but not putting much on though I think that's pretty normal at this stage. He's very active and his belly is a pretty solid thing.

What's normal for your toddler??]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:46:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29593&PID=818066&title=poos-poos-and-more-poos#818066
