Hey.. not sure if i should be to concerned, but....

a week ago i put Jamie on to SMA gold from staydown.. i was expecting a couple of days of ewww nappie's (im weaning her too) but its been just over a week now and no sign of normal poo, its all ewww and really smelly.. i did notice a little bit of blood in her nappy on the last ewww bum change, it was only a tiny bit, but still, its blood.

do i take her to the doc's.. or give it more time?? plus, do i need to be giving her anything as she has had runny poo for over a week now.. i know i cant give her what i have on a IBS attack (warm water with 1/2 tspoon salt 1/2 tspoon sugar.. is there anything else a 6 month old can have (not sure about dioraylite, i've run out)

anyhows... any advice will help..

I agree with the previous posts hun..... go back a step on the milk, ring nhs direct for more guided advice, but please remember to protect your lo's bum, i use good old fashioned vaseline.

Hope she gets better soon x

Well, now im not to sure if its the milk or a bug..

Jamie is still having really ewww nappies, but last night she decided to vomit too, and have a temp of 38.3, she is now all bunged up in the nose and sneezing for britain.

Sophie also decided she didn't want to keep her dinner down too, she was sick around midnight, but no temp..

Also, i think both of them are teething, so that could be adding to the ewww nappies too.

All fun and games at Nicki house!!

Two sick-chicks - what a shame. I agree with Madz - I'd speak to GP if there was any blood involved, just to be on the safe-side. Hope they are feeling better soon (and you don't get the bug too).
