Darn those pooping issues. We had the same issues before solids and since she's gotten used to eating, she poops everyday. She is ebf and now 10 months. What I was going to suggest is that because rice cereal can be constipating and we sort of ran into that issue, I was told to try barley. She did much better on barley than she ever did on rice and barley has a bit of a better flavour than the cardboard flavour that rice has. Also mixing pears or prunes in with cereal will help with getting the poop out, lol. We did alot of prunes...Anyways good luck and it will sort itself out soon. Oh and remember the poops are going to be different with the start of solids- different texture and the smell, oh the smell, lol.
