ok, this is my 3rd baby, but my other 2 didn't breastfed very well and so I never had this happen. My 2 month old's poo is super sweet smelling. She's exclusivly breastfed (my others were breast and formula). I've never smelled poo so sweet. It smells like carmel corn. Is this normal?

Quoting Merinda:
yep all good i kow this is gunna sound really wierd but have you tasted breast milk it is sooo sweet i only know this because my darling little angel threw up in my mout6h as i was kissing her after a feed so really it was probably my own fault but it was still disgusting, but as i said it tasted very sweet
That happened to me too, lol. I had just fed my daughter and then for some reason I got the bright idea to hold her up in the air and breastmilk just spit right out of her mouth in to mine. Thank goodness it wasn't spit up.

Ha ha, this made me laugh because I remember being surprised about that with my first :) Totally normal just like everyone says. You'll notice it gets stinkier when you introduce solids but still not as bad as a formula poo.

Hey...
Totally normal. I have been only breast feeding our daughter Violeta for 2 months now, and her poop has smelled sweet since abut week 2. It's actually nice if you think of it.

Thanks for asking this question! I wanted to ask this when I noticed mine always had a sweet smell to his dirty diapers too. :)

Yep, totally normal! Breastfed babes don't have stinky poos and they're often a bit runnier so breastfed babies rarely get constipated...another one of the great things about bf

Yes, completely normal...one of the perks of having a breastfed baby! It is supposed to be sweet smelling, yellow, and seedy. Sounds like she is a normal healthy breastfed baby :)
