« on: June 17, 2012, 08:01:02 pm »
Have been trying to load some pics for you all of our very first Kids born yesterday morning but for the life of me i cant work out how to compress the pics!!
Mum and babies (boy and girl) are doing great all eating and suckling well, i do have one question for you all the male has a bit of a runny bum with mustard coloured poo, is this normal, to be honest it looks and smells like what my children did in their nappies!! lol

Hi Xemonsus, yes the yellow poo is normal and just added info sets like concrete so beware were you get it - like wise on the kids bum or the backs of legs, sometime they need a wee bit of a bath (just bum in warm water to soften and remove - the joys of kids). Glad all went well  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

congratulations :thumbsup:

don't worry about the yellow mustardy stuff if its short-term, its probably the colostrum.
Just help keep it clean if mum can't, and keep an eye on it - if its more than a couple of days or so he might need some meds
