Sometimes I get soft turds that smell. But because she's mostly breastfed, still, her poos are often soft and smear-y - kind of like the texture of peanut butter.

@artbee: She goes more often and they are more liquidy? How long have your been giving solids? How is she otherwise?

I only ask because of the possibility of food allergies. I'm obsessed with DS's stools because of his allergy issues, and when he is reacting to something we see the more frequent, liquidy stools that are brighter in color. Otherwise, he only goes once every few days and it's more solid, but this transition happened even before we started solids and he has always been EBF. Color only really changed because of iron supplements.

Definitely not as frequent (we try to do pears/prunes often to prevent multiple days without) and they're definitely less liquidy. We've also had some of the peanut-butter like ones, and even some that are kind of like clay (on days he's getting "cleared out"). But the biggest change is the smell. UGH. I opened his diaper pail tonight and .... bleeeeeeeh.

They def smell worse! The consistancy varies, from pb to more firm. They are less loose than before solids.

@artbee: that makes sense. Just wanted to toss that out there because I'm not sure I would have realized the connectionunder normal circumstances.

DS definitely does not go once a day an really only goes if we give him the opportunity(we EC) but our GI said that's fine as long as it's not hard or straining.
