Back with a mucous question

I posted a few weeks ago about green mucousy poo with my now 10 week old baby. I had quit dairy and soy for 2 weeks, then wheat and corn for 2 weeks to no avail.

Since then, I quit nuts too, and bam, yellow poo (3 days later.) I've been nut free (and still dairy, soy, and wheat free) for 10 days now. Poo is still bright, mustardy yellow, but it's also still mucousy. Like, really mucousy.

Her diaper was checked last week, no blood, but showed up positive for moderate WBCs. Her ped said not to worry about the mucous or the WBCs.

But of course I am worried. Is the mucous a sign that I'm still missing an intolerance somewhere? Or is her gut still just healing?

TIA for any advice or experience.

    Sorry, what are WBCs?

    it might take another couple of weeks for the nut proteins to completely clear out and the mucous to go away.

    White blood cells. It's a positive indicator of inflammation.

    Ohhh, gotcha. Is the pedi planning on testing another diaper, like in a week or so, to see if the WBC count is going down?
