Thanks AS I will have a look - just looked at the easy peasy website suggested on Kotas thread about inserts ohhh all these new bookmarks

There's no rash just blood I'm not sure if it's his poo burning his bum?? I'd understand if he was left in it for ages but he was in it 10mins max
lfernie what's a fissure? He doesn't seem to be in pain when he poo's just after and when I wipe. He has been constipated though and poo wasn't his normal poo it was rank

 

[sjbno1]

Just a quick question, when he gets this is it in accordance with something hes eaten maybe? I have a friend whos little girl used to turn certain foods acidic so it would result in her bum bleeding - no rash just blood?! just a thought?

 

[anothersquish]

oh poor H, just seen. I know my older one had this but he was in sposies. I just plastered him in fullers earth cream and that did the trick eventually. I cant remember how old he was.....probably 7/8 months as I know he was eating.

 

[Lunaty]

fissure is the inside of his anal canal that has split a bit, it is very very soar but only for a while after a poo.. (at least it was with me when i had one after birth..) but even straining can cause one.. and baby's tend to have it more commonly/..

 

[lfernie]

WSS ^^ and if he's constipated he'll likely be straining. I think you can get stool softeners or something from the Docs if that's what it is x

must ... not....

Aww, hope Halen's feeling better soon hon xx We've sort of had something similar with Aisling where her bum sort of goes gooey, like her poo had really quickly eaten through her skin. It was horrible but it just seemed to clear up after a while with lots of sudocreme.

Hi!! Can I join the fluffy bum club??

We finally switched to exclusive cloth nappies about 3 weeks ago, and I'm loving it! We're using Thirsties AIOs and fitteds with covers. Anyone have experience with these??

Also, for the US mums... what do you use, and where did you get them? I found it a challenge to find all the cute nappies that the UK has available.

Thanks! Karen

I realised what a fissure was after I posted
I'm not sure if it's food he's not eaten anything different to what he normally eats, but I've been retrying dairy as I had chocolate at Easter and he wasn't sick so I thought maybe his reflux had gone and if wasn't a dairy intolerance it was just the dairy aggrevating his reflux, but the only thing I can think is it's the dairy I've been having?? He's done a poo this morning and no blood but his little bum is still sore

so pleased Halen didnt have any blood this morning, i know this is gonna sound a bit TMI buut was it fresh bright red blood??

 

[JayleighAnn]

He did another poo about half hour after that one and there was blood again

Yeah it's bright red fresh wet blood. It's not coming from his bumhole where I'd expect it if it was a fissure, but from just in front of his bumhole, u know the (urgghh tmi!) darker wrinkly ( )bit in front. Thats what makes me think it's like burning him? He had it last week and it was his bum crack bleeding where the poo had gone??

Thanks! But grrrrr must.not.spend!

 

[CountingDown]

Morning everyone! I was wondering can anyone reccommend me a bright printed nappy? All the nappies I have apart from my flips are minky and I really fancy added some bright prints to my stash now xx

 

[sjbno1]

JL - Maybe it is a intolerence to dairy? could you cut it out again and see what happens? also have you tried ringing NHS direct? maybe they can give you some further advice or I used a website called patient .co.uk

Welcome Dolcebella

Grrrrrr non fluffy bum related - I have the most miserable baby today shes been crying since about 9.30am! and has only just gone down for a sleep after wearing herself out its horrible as I feel so bad that she was testing my patience so much that I had to walk away several times sometimes crying constantely makes me feel like such a bad mum

 

[Maffie]

Sarah when Noah is like that all we can do is walk him in the pram or attach to the boob

 

[sjbno1]

I was going to take her for a walk but gave her a bottle and she eventually settled herself down so I've just popped her down for a nap - think we may take a stroll into town this afternoon and get some air
