Vinegary is exactly how I’d describe teething poo. It’s usually a bit looser too and has that watery pesto oil appearance (my little girl’s did anyway!).
Rubbing teething gel on the problem areas should help a lot, or if it gets too unbearable for him, try nurofen as it’s much better for teething pain relief than calpol (because it’s anti-inflammatory I think).
So glad I read this! Our boy is 9 weeks old and he's started teething. I double checked with the doctor as I thought he was quite young but they said he's definitely teething.
His poo has been exactly how you described! I was slightly worried and was gonna mention it at the health visitor appointment! Wasn't too concerned as he wasn't vomiting and was still taking his bottle.
Good luck! It can be tough. Unfortunately I think 9 weeks is too young for nurofen (you’ll need to check) but the gel is great, and teetha powders are good too. Xx
