Success after IF

watery poos?

I posted about this once before but now I'm not sure I was right the first time.  Almost every time DS has a wet/poopy diaper,  the back of his clothes are soaked.  Sometimes it's just a little spot.. other times it's the entire back side of his clothing.. or one side of the back of his clothing.. sometimes it's the full length of his side.  Initially, I thought that it was the vasoline in the diaper from his circumcision.. this is what the nurse told me as well.  His circ looks absolutely fine so I stopped the vasoline a couple days ago. (2 weeks was Monday).  STILL the back of his clothes are soaked when I go to change him. What's up?  His poos are mustardy and seedy just like they say they should be. Sometimes you can hear him when he passes gas or poos and it really does sound watery or liquidy.  I just have a hard time believing that this is pee.  How would the front of him be completely dry but the back of him be wet if it were pee?  Is this normal to have watery poos like this or no? 

 I swear I do at least one load of laundry EVERY day.  I have about 8 sleepers that fit him really well right now.. some of them are newborn and some are 0-3 and I literally run out every day.  He usually goes comando with a diaper and no shirt at least once during the day because I've run out of clothes!!

Re: watery poos?

  • I was having this EXACT issue with Riley over the weekend. We switched diapers from 7th gen to pampers and no more leaks. It is most likely urine that is leaking. It slides down his leg to his back without getting absorbed. Try a different brand of diaper for a day and I bet you get less leaks.

    PS Our little guys have birthdays right next to each other. Mine was born dec 7th.

    Thats what I thought too.  I was using pampers swaddlers nb and switched to huggies nb umbilical care..  he doesn't always leak but he still leaks more often than not.  I still run out of clothes almost every day.  My friend suggested trying size 1. They are clearly too big but we tried anyway and he still leaked!  It has to be pee.. you're right because its too much liquid to be anything else.. I just never understand how he is never wet in front!

  • Do you notice it before you change him or when you are redressing him?  Sometimes Hayden pees while I am changing him and I dont always notice until I am dressing him again.  He is a sneaky pee-er!  Other than that my only suggestion is to go up a size or change more frequently.  Maybe he is a heavy wetter and his diaper just cant keep up.
