My daughter is 3 months old. She just started having seedy mucas looking diapers and not wanting to eat that much. I took her to the doc and was told everything was fine she just needed to pass it through her system. And that I was an overprotective mother. But it just doesn't seem right to me. Can anyone give any advise on this??

Hi! My duaghter is 3 months old in a week. SHe has had diahrea for 8 days. I have seen the doctor twice each time the Dr says that as long as I am feeding him regularily it is ok. But I am very worried because she turns red in the face and strains a lot even though her bowel movements are very watery and mucous like, yellowish green in colour. Could somebody please help me understand what is going on?

This site would be of a lot better service if there were some sort of organization so that comments from the people who are responding to someone's question are listed as "RESPONSE" and it should ALSO include a reference to WHICH question it is in response to. Does anyone agree?

Hi my daughter is 7 months old and formula fed, she has very dark green to black stool with black specks in it. Is this blood? She has been on miralax for a few months to make sure she goes regular, should I call the doc about the specs?

Black stool is *never* normal except for the very first stool right after the baby is born. After that, black stool usually means blood and you need to contact the doctor immediately!

Good advice from a General Practitioner friend: put some raisins (pref. organic), into a bottle, pour boiling water over them, leave to cool, then push them through a sieve, give baby the juice in a bottle. This really does work!!

Just wanted to let you all know my experiences with my 3 month old daughter. She was strictly breastfed for about 2 months and had the "normal" mustard seed BM's almost every diaper change. Now she is mostly formula fed and has a BM ever 2-3 days consistently. They are dark green and blue and fairly thick. Although she sems very uncomfortable and strains alot she quickly gets over the ordeal. She has been given a clean bill of health but every baby is different. As a parent if you are concerned about something take your child to a doctor. dont necessarily go on the experiences of other people.

In response to Mama, about her grandson: My son did the same thing. My ped. told me he has infant reflux, which is commonly mistaken for colic. He would scream during feedings and arch his back. My ped. put him on an antacid and things are back to normal. Try that!

My son is 11 weeks old and is formula fed. He has pooped one huge one a day for weeks and just today it was slightly watery and mustard seedy in colour. Normally it's brownish green and pastey. Anyone have any clue what's going on? Has anybody been through this before so I could know if I should call his doc. I called Telehealth ontario and they said not to worry about it and just monitor him. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. thx

My baby started with enfamil w/ iron which made her stool yellow seedy with a brown & red mix all together. This milk was making her go 10 to 15 times a day. The doctor changed the milk to pro sobee milk & now she's only going 3 times a day & the brownish red mixture is gone. Do you think my babies stool is back normal?

Hi. My grandson has a green/yellowish stool. He also screams at the top of his lungs for hours at a time. While drinking his milk (Goodstart) he'll stop and just scream. He is being given Karo in his formula and was told to also give him Pedialyte w/water. Dr says he has colic, rock him...Hold up, Mama says baby is in pain. Take tests!!! Please respond...Thank you, Mama

my baby is now 4 months, he has always produced stools that have a metalic siver in color. The mustard color is still present but smeared with this metalic grey colour, or sometimes just all grey, nothing has changed and has been on the same formula since birth, gains weight well and slleeps good. Whould this be a gastrointestinal problem?

My baby started having black stools when he is already 3 months old. He previously had yellow to light brown stools, thus I eliminated infant formula as the culprit. We stopped giving him his multivitamins but still black stools occur. Is this still meconium? He's gaining weight and sleeps well.

This is to Avamommy, you might try gently massaging babys' belly to loosen things up a little bit. I hope this place will be a helpful place where people will hear and gain knowledge from hearing of others' expieriences. I think it is good for new mothers esspecialy but, really for all mothers to have several resources to obtain a diverse selection to turn to. To speak of any obsticles overcome, or to hear some one with the same problem or concern may be if nothing else reasuring to them.

Occasionally mothers that do use cloth diapers with rubber pants will find a roundish type, pinkish coloured stain right at the seat area of their baby's rubber pants. This is a sign of a runny bowel movement and although the staining cannot be removed, it is a good indication that the child is getting fed properly.
