The P word

I can't believe I'm looking at stool chart but...
I have noticed Sam's poo looking quite different ever since his had the bad daycare tummy bug. I have never seen it looking like this before so wanted to find out what it meant. The stool definitely looked very much like a type 2 in the Bristol stool chart!
Type 2 is apparently a sign of constipation! Sam poos at least a couple of times a day and I believe it comes out easily. So how can that be constipation? I have increased the amount of vegetables we had in the last few days and now it looks more and more like a type 3. Is that a good sign? I don't really know.
I also read that increasing dietary fiber has only limited benefits, increasing the good old gut bacteria is the key. Sam's eczema is also worse and I know it's all related! The last batch of yogurt I made didn't come out too good and I have not made any for over two weeks now. It's time to make more yogurt and some more fermented veges!!
