We are not alone

Just found an interesting post about baby poop on mumsnet. Seems a few other mums have had babies that don't poo very often.

A few of the posts are saying breast fed babies don't poo as often as bottle fed. I have heard this too as it's something to do with there being little waste in breast milk. Basically babies hold on to everything because their bodies use all of the nutrients. However, duckling seemed to be pooing fine until we introduced a bottle feed. The health visitor suggested easy digest formula which we now use combined with expressed breast milk, but she is still very irregular.

No poo today at all.
