I keep meaning to ask this--my 2.5 mo. old exclusively bf baby almost never has any "curd" in his poops. They are just all liquid, runny, sometimes mucus, but no little chunks, which both my others always had. He had "normal" poops the first couple weeks, but its been like this most of the time for 2 months now. can that be normal? It seems like almost everything can be normal, even if its not typical, but also can be signs of something wrong, so I'm totally lost.
We are on day 8 of a dairy and soy-free diet, if that matters. Poops haven't really gotten better, although there hasn't been any mucus in the last day or two.

Bear in mind that it can take at least 2 weeks (often more like 4) for all dairy and soya to leave your systems, so it's too early to tell just yet!
I would also say based on my own experience with MPI DS (don't know about soya as we never have it due to my intolerance of the stuff) that very runny poop indicates that all is not well in LO's digestive system :(
You could also try infant probiotics once his gut has healed up, as that can help regulate the bowels :)

Not sure if this will help:

Hope you are managing okay on the dairy/soya free - it's a bit annoying at times especially when eating out but worth it. Oliver sleeps a lot better when I am dairy/soya free as well as not being so snotty etc so worth it. It's also a great way to lose weight!!

Hi, the fact that the mucus has gone is great news! On the right trcks at least. I would give it another couple of weeks and hopefully you should see further improvements ;D
