Newborn poo

[Dit]

How long does the breastfed newborn's poo stay that yellow and sticky? Until she goes to solids? And when do you start using the Little Squirt?

Everyone is different but I used the lil squirt and microfleece liners as soon as I was home from hospy. I can't remember about NB poo but I think Maxies was fairly pumpkiny until he started solids at 7 months

I think they started doing formed poo's when they went on solids, around 5/6 months. I used LS from day one.

Until solids are well established I found the poo stayed quiet yellow/orange and more liquid (ie. no rolling off the liner).

Yes - until solids. Breastfed poo is much sweeter and pleasant smelling than solid poo too. I found the Little Squirt particularly useful for newborn poo - my girls solid poo generally falls off itself when I hold it over the toilet.
