poop help? sorry kinda gross

Question

So I'm a FTM and sometimes my son has these poops that I swear just make my stomach churn. Well I was taking a video of him when I actually audibly HEARD him poop and it sounded runny. I go to change his diaper and this is what it looks like. What makes me a little worried is it hasn't ever looked mucousy like this before.

Answer

It looks super pale. You should look up some poop charts online. I think pale poop can be a warning for something... I don't remember what it was but you should definitely show it to your dr.

Answer

Is he breastfed?

Answer

Normal

Answer

I just looked it up because it was bothering me that I couldn't remember what it was but here is the link I found: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/articles-and-answers/healthy-children/stool-color-guide

You should definitely bring him in in my opinion because it looks identical to the pale one.

Answer

I think it's normal.  Is he a newborn? Both my kids pooped like that a few times when they were a few weeks old. I remember asking their pediatrician and said it was normal. If you want to be sure I would show these pictures to your baby's pediatrician and get a solid answer from him. Good luck.
