Moms who supplement with formual...

how is your LO's poop?  DD's poop is like peanut butter now and it's THICK...it sticks to her butt.  It's almost the same color as breastfed poop, but it is just way thicker.  I am worried that she may be constipated.

Same thing happed when we started to supplement. Now back on BM due to formula not agreeing with her. But in headed to the pediatrician today and will ask about that symptom in case it happens with the next formula try and post later if you want?

My LO's poop got thicker but not like peanut butter consistency. Does she seem in pain when she poops? If you're worried it can't hurt to call your pediatrician.

Sometimes she does seem to strain when she has to go.  She has to be a little constipated...it's the only logical explanation.  I will try a little prune juice.  Thanks!

DD's poop is very thick peanut butter consistency, since we supplement with soy formula it has now turned to a dark greenish brown color. She normally doesn't have any issues going with it being thicker like this.
