creamy poop

My Lo is 4 months old and for the past few days has had really creamy poop. It is still yellow in color, but in stead of seedy, it turned creamy.

He only gets breast milk, either by breastfeeding, or in a bottle while I'm at work.

Is this normal?

Re: creamy poop

  • The exact same thing happened with DS about a week ago. I chalked it up to a maturing digestive system. He's only had breastmilk as well, so I know it's not a change in diet. He's also not pooping as often or spitting up as much too, so that's what lead me to my conclusion.

  • Yes, definitely sounds normal. Poop (even with EBF) can be a wide range of colors and consistencies.

  • DS's poop has changed and looks exactly like what you are describing. He also used to poop all the time and now he is only going every one to two days. Is your LO teething? I've heard that when babies start teething sometimes their poop changes. Not sure why but this fits with my LO. No teeth yet but all the other signs of teething are there!
