What pill is your friend on?  Combination pills have been known to affect milk
quality and composition.  The progesterone only "mini pill" is not beleived to
have this effect, though I know MD's who are hesitant to prescribe it until
lactation is well established (>6weeks) due to concerns about inhibiting
prolactin.
        Some babies do stool infrequently after about 6 weeks.  The stool should
be huge if the baby is only going q10days.  Is baby gaining, happy and
comfortable?
