My little girl had normal bowel movements up until about two weeks ago and now she poops maybe every other day. She isn't really straining, but her gas smells horrific. I had a lot of trouble in the beginning and have cut out all gassy foods, tried the drops, and all the other stuff that's out there.

We started giving her half formula and half breast milk in the mornings because I recently went back to work. Could that be what is changing her bowel movements? Why would her gas all of a sudden be smelling so bad?

Your baby is now getting used to formula and you need not worry about the every other day bowel movements , that is normal , and the gassy smell is the formula believe you me lol.....your baby will adjust fine and if you feel differant call your doctor , the nurses are wonderful with questions , they have heard it all and no question is ever a stupid question always remember that.
Enjoy your baby and laugh at the oder they certainly can produce a volume of it lol.....

Good Luck .....Lisa
