Dear Craigy, Just a thought: have you been on antibiotics recently? Same thing happened to my baby when he was 6 weeks and it coincided with a bout of oral thrush which had reached his digestive system. The nappy pail reeked of yeast even when it only contained wet nappies. Thrush also makes babies very windy. A course of anti-fungal oral gel (prescribed by GP) and probiotics (self- help remedy!) eventually got rid of the candida infection and he has been filling his nappy more often and regularly though still only once a day (is now 16 weeks). I only mention this because thrush in babies is not really taken seriously by docs as it's not harmful, so it's easily missed. Prob a good idea to check with a breastfeeding counsellor at a baby cafe? Infrequent bowel movements not generally regarded as a symptom of thrush but I saw lots of Internet discussions where it was a common thing with babies who had it. Don't want to alarm you cos it's not serious but it is a bore if left untreated... Hope this helps as it's not harmful
