Mucos while on elecare

[Anonymous]

My little guy has started having green mucus filled diapers. He has been on elecare for a week and a half now. Before he was on nutramigen for about two weeks, which gave him diarrhea. He has never had mucus in his stool before. Should I be worried?

[hellbennt]

it might be all the ‘stuff’ working it’s way out of his system?

give it the full two weeks…

how are other symptoms?

pain?

He has been crankier since it started. His bowel movements have also gotten smaller and it seems more difficult to pass. Thanks for the reply and the heads up on my signature.

make sure to give the solutab on an empty stomach, followed by a ‘meal’ 30 minutes later…

you can try giving him probiotics:

I thought that I would give an update on my little man. On Dec. 21st we saw his GI doctor, who thought the mucus might be something viral going on, so he said wait till the new year and if he is still having the mucus, we will do additional testing. Well, he still has the mucus problem, so we will be calling the dr. tomorrow.

maybe try neocate? it’s the ‘same’ as elecare, but a different brand- maybe one brand over the other would help in this case?
