doctors visit needed?

my little girl has been pooping so much today she has fill well over 10 nappies, shes only 6 weeks old do i take her to the doctors?

Is she breast or formula fed? My dd was bf and pooped blow out style every time she ate.

If she's breastfed, she should poop every time she eats and a few times inbetween meals too. I would put some Vaseline/desitin on her bum because it can get really irritated down there. If it's formula, sometimes it takes them a couple of weeks to react to formula. You might want to consider switching if she's not sick or anything like that. If she's sick, there isn't much you can do except wait it out.

Oh wait.. did she just get vaccines? The babies always poop a lot and it's gross after vaccines.

As Long as they're still normal color and consistency she's fine.

na she hasn't had her needles yet.

Is her stomach really hard and firm? Does she cry when you push a boy on it?

I wouldn't worry too much if she is still drinking enough to keep hydrated. She may just be increasing how much she is drinking so increasing how much she poops. If she starts to seem out of character, or you just feel like something is wrong, take her to the dr.

nah her tummy is soft. she's just really gasy and keeps pooping its settle down a bit though

For Jayden every damn nappy change was a poopy one. That lasted all the way up until we started solids. At 8 months he went onto formula and it then we down to 1 a day. Least the BF poops are easy to clean lol

They stain like crazy though.   My babies eventually switch over to pooping about once a week and then they'd have poo-nami's and it would be this thick peanut butter looking stuff that would fill the diaper from one end to the other. I always ended up bringing a change of clothes with me, especially around that time of week.
