    Default Lots of watery, yellow "poop"?

    Today she has had a lot of really watery, yellow "poop"...I say that in quotes, because it's more watery than actual poop. Could this be a problem? She has had poopy diapers today, but also a few of these wet yellow diapers also.

    Tammy,

    Catherine used to have that all the time. I swore I could just tip up the diaper and pour the poop out. As far as I know, it doesn't represent any problem at all.

    Actual diarrhea would be different because it would be more explosive, farty, and accompanied by cramping and general unhappiness.

    HTH!

    Yup, sounds like yummy breastfed baby poop! :)

    My ten month old son has been having the same poop for two and a half days now and he's bottle fed. We've been having "something" that's apparently been going around our house - we've all had diarrhea at some point during the past four days, so it could be something that's going around.

    Or it could just be breastfed poop.

    You really can't compare the poop of a bottle-fed older baby to the poop of a breastfed newborn. What Tammy is describing sounds absolutely normal. Don't worry!
