Meconium

allstagg · September 2015

hi ladies, just want to know how many days have passed since your babies stopped passing meconium and has seedy diapers?

Baby is 5 days and 16 hours and still passing meconium and has jaundice that was brought down to an acceptable level with phototherapy. I was breastfeeding and was asked to breastfeed and supplement with formula. Anyone else? Just worried ...

My little guy was about 3-4 days old by the time all his passed.
In a FTM so in not sure what the normal is.
If you are worried, you should definitely call.

When I was supplementing with formula his poop was definitely darker, once he was exclusively on breast milk he got the yellow seedy poops

It only took about 3 days for hers to all pass. We were having normal diapers by the time we got home.

Our daughter had jaundice and also did phototherapy lights, she didn't stop passing seedy diapers for several days. I did formula for a few days as well. If you are concerned talk with your pediatrician.
