Foremilk/Hindmilk imbalance?

LO has had foamy yellow poop for over a week now and it seems to make her super fussy.

I tried block nursing thinking it could be a foremilk/hindmilk problem, but it doesn't seem to be helping.

Does anyone know anything else to try for imbalance other than block nursing?

  • If you think you have an imbalance, you should talk to your pediatrician before self-treating. It's far more rare than the talk on these boards would lead you to believe.

  • Agreed that you should talk to the pedi.  Yellow poop sounds normal (at least for my kids), although foamy might be weird.  Also, are you sure it's the feeding/pooping that's making her fussy?  Fussiness peaks around 6 weeks, usually, and I know my kids got really cranky around 5-6 weeks.
