You say  3-4 poops - are they credit card size? or just smears?
 
~~~ Interesting... I know some folks say "at least quarter sized", others  
say "at least the size of the OK one makes with thumb and forefinger". Where 
did  the "Credit card sized" idea come from? Does this have to do with the  
Nommsen-Rivers research?( Do we need to cue moms to look for bigger stools  
so teeny ones don't get counted and give a false sense  of intake? ) After 
reading that, it's a lot more challenging to help  moms assess their own 
situations over the phone, since so many are still going  by "but he is pooping 
at least 4 times a day..."
 
Comments?
Peace,
Judy
