Worried about dd's turds. Is this normal?

Yes, I am seriously asking about poop. lolz. 

We started solids at 6 months. Since starting solids, her turds have been *really* solid. I mean, we have NEVER had a messy poop. Not one. I use just one wipe. We use cloth diapers and the poop just falls right into the toilet without hardly any effort on my part.  Sometimes her poop is like little balls (this morning- like 10 of them.)  She is very regular and goes a couple times each day. 

She has never seemed constipated and/or in pain. Is this normal?  The little balls is what has me worried. They're small, no bigger than a marble and most are 1/2 that size. 

tia! (It's never too early to think about poop!!!) Oh, and her sh!t don't stink... fo' realz!

    I hope it's normal.  DS has little ball like poo a decent amount.

    DS has one big ball (that looks like it was made up of smaller ones) a couple of times a day.  Same thing with the cloth dipes-it just rolls off into the toilet and leaves nothing behind.  I'm assuming it's normal!

    OH, and what type of CDs do you use?  We're in the middle of a trial and I'm still having a hard time deciding what to get!

    I wouldn't worry unless she stops going.  DS has pretty solid poops now too, especially if he eats cheese and/or bananas!

    Liev's poops have gotten really solid in the past week or so but I chalk it up to whole milk.  I wouldn't worry though unless he looks like she's in pain or she stops pooping altogehter for a few days.

    We CD too and it's SOOOO much nicer not to poop caked onto the diaper!  The diapers barely even get soiled now!

    I was told it's normal.  That when they begin eating solids their poop becomes solid when they are infants they are only consuming liquids which is why their poop is messy.  The only thing I find odd is that her poop doesn't smell.  My DD will have the tiniest turd and it smells like toxic waste lol

    DS's have always been really solid since starting solids, but usually one big solid poop.  When he has the "little balls" of poop I always make sure to feed him prunes.

    This is the same with me exactly! I was just wondering today if it was normal! It makes washing the diapers easy! :-)
