Smelly Bowel Movements

Smelly Bowel Movements

Hello;

My daughter is 7.5 months old, she is on Similac formula,nestle rice cereal and heinz baby food, and her stool is green, muccusy like and it smells really strong, I have never known a baby (which I have been around a lot of) to have this strong smell to there stool.

I was just wondering if this is something to cause concern or if it is a side affect of either her food formula or teething.

More than likely it the teething My daughter experienced the same type of smelly diapers. It almost smells acidic. It will eventually go away just bare with it when those pearly whites pop threw it will be worth it believe it or not.

It could also be an allergic reaction. We had a similar problem with my 10 month old after I gave her wheat cereal! Try eliminating it for a few days and bring it back to experiment. They smell more with solids too!

I have been going through the exact same thing with my 9 month old son, for almost 2 weeks. The only new foods I've given him are Yogurt Melts and Cheerios. He has eaten my yogurt and baby cereal before with no problem, so I thought it shouldn't be the new foods. He IS teething and they are hurting him...I hope it is the teething. How interesting.
