Hi all,
My 5 week old little girl has had a bit of an upset stomach over the last few days and I just thought I would see if any of you had had similar problems.
On Friday she started throwing up after each feed, it was quite a bit but mucusy (she's had a cold so I thought initially it might be her way of clearing the mucus out). I spoke to my health visitor about another issue and she said that maybe Avi is being greedy and eating too much which leads to her bringing some back but that as she is breastfed they can't tell.
Then yesterday she started having green, mucusy poo which made her scream as it passed through her system/into her nappy. She was also constantly on the breast from 6 till midnight (she normally sleeps from 10/11 till 6 so not like her).
Today her poo is less green but she still wants to feed pretty much constantly from 2.30 till now she falls asleep at the breast sometimes and then screams on waking till she gets fed again.
Has anyone been through similar? Should I be concerned about the green poo? (She has had plenty of wet nappies throughtout and was 7 lb 10 oz at birth and was 9 lb 2 oz on Wed at 5 weeks.).
