Family Forum / Pregnancy / Breastfeeding / July 2005Poly Vi Sol side effects?
Morgan went poo 3 times today. Her bum and jamjay (you know what this is) are very red. Could the vitamin drops be causing this? ~Carol Ann Has she been eating anything else that could be the culprit? Anything acidic, like orange juice, mandarin orange slices, etc? If not, then I'd think maybe it was the vitamins, but how much vitamin does she get at a time? If its a liquid or a pill, perhaps try splitting the dose and giving it to her morning and night, instead of all at once. It also could just be a random thing. Every once in a while Taylor will have a poo that causes her to go bright red. A little ointment and she's back in business by the next pull-up change.

Watermelon, blueberries, plums.......awwwwww wait a sec.........plums. She got ahold of a really sour one at the store (while my mother was watching her). I wonder.......... I'll take your suggestion to split the dosage. She actually seems to like it, so Morgan may like having it split up. Thank you!!!!! ~Carol Ann > Morgan went poo 3 times today.

The only thing she's ever had a problem with is occasional dark stools of varying degrees of colors(I won't go into color...might be TMI;) This frightened me at first but I was assured the iron in the vitamins and her immature digestive tract. I know you guys are beyond the "immature digestive tract"=) Vanessa Watch Samantha grow! http://www.wickedracing19.com/samantha >Morgan went poo 3 times today.

I have no idea about the vitamin drops, but IME tea tree ointment is fab for sore baby bums.

Again, I don't know specifically about the vitamin drops, but this symptom is classic for when an infant eats highly acid foods such as strawberry, pineapple, tomato or orange? If you can rule out anything like this, it may be the drops. See if they test acid on a litmus strip! :-) Larry >>> Morgan went poo 3 times today.

She gets a red, sore bum when she eats too much, although watermelon and cantalope don't seem to bother her. Nan |
