Your baby’s diaper can be a sign of all the new foods they are eating.

Choose 1 day this week to offer your baby a new food and pay attention to your baby’s diaper changes. Write down anything you notice. Use your notes to help talk with your health care provider about any concerns you may have.

Watch for:

• Timing of messy diaper.
  
• The look of the poop: for example: Is the poop runny or hard? Is it normal? Do you see any colors you are not used to?
  
• Baby’s response: for example: Does your baby have a tummy ache? Are they showing any signs of being constipated? Or, does everything seem normal?
