Is this normal?

J&N are pooing constantly at the moment (for the last 2 weeks). J in particular is doing up to 6 poos a day (sometimes 1 or 2 overnight too). They are like b/f baby poos with food in them.

They are now 1, having 3 solid meals a day and 4-5 breastfeeds.

I have a regular paed appointment tomorrow and will talk to him about it, but I'm interested in what other kids this age are doing. Miss I was a once or twice a day solid poo kind of girl.

Has anything changed in their diet lately?
Have you been b/f them more with the warmer weather? (although today is cool )

I found the warmer weather made my kids poo abit more because of the more frequent b/f & water.

are they having grainy bread??

when mia was younger she would poo up to 6 times as you describe a day if she had been eating it

[AliP]

No I don't give them grainy bread. They have been having spelt bread some days though

teething?

Lachlan does this when teething, its awful. Normally just about 2 days of poo machine then about 2 weeks of maybe 2 a day but just awful sloppy mess

[AliP]

Well they don't have any teeth yet so maybe???

I have a friend who's number 3 is like this and same age as your twins. I really feel for her because I had 2 children like this also. Very tiring!! I hope it settles down for you soon.

Thanks Cas!

A few people have mentioned teething but it's been going on for a while so I'm not sure... Will let you know what paed says.

Why don't you have him checked because he might just ingested dirty things/food

Banana's!

Are they having bananas?
If they are, omit them for about 2 or 3 weeks and see if there is a difference

Benji can't eat them anymore, and my neice appears to be the same now.. realy weird because they have both always eaten bananas, but now have that same reaction.
