My curiosity is to how early in life this can start to happen?  That is why I
think regular stooling in a newborn is important to watch.  Maybe the colon
is more fragile then, more vulnerable.  If it isn't an intake issue then
perhaps we need to monitor more closely.
Thanks for all the feedback....
