Change in poop?

[~Kiki]

I know this is a great morning topic, but...
Has anyone ever noticed a big change in their little ones poop around 12 weeks? I know they're supposed to go less frequent, but does the consistency change as well?

Should be mustard like and yellow.  My ds has very runny poop (TMI) - any time someone new watches him they tell us he has diarrhea and we have to explain that no, that is just how he is.  Our dr. told us it can very from lo to lo. 

If ds has an upset stomach or is getting to much of the foremilk, then it is green.  May I ask what are you noticing as the change?

It is very yellow - the color has not changed. She used have a little poop after every feeding. It just seems to be less frequent (only once or twice a day) and more on the runny side. I've heard that it changes to sometimes only once a day or couple days, so that doesn't really concern me. I''ve just never heard anything about the consistency changing. Wanted to make sure it was a normal thing

Sounds normal.  My ds was having like 8 dirty diapers a day and right around 12 weeks went down to 1 to 2 per day.  Consistency varies even now.  Dr. told me not to worry unless it is green.  If there is any green, take that as an indication that you are switching sides to early.  Repeatedly green and you know that you are not switching to early - need to take your lo in.
