Change in poop

Just wondering if this is normal. My newborn (11 days) has been pooping the "yellow, seedy" kind of poop once my milk came in. It was pretty watery and often a lot covering most of the diaper. The last few days its gotten a lot thicker and not quite as much (but more than a quarter size). The change in consistency and small amount is a little concerning to me but maybe it hasn't something to do with my milk maturing?

Every now and then I get a poop similar to what you describe from my LO. I figure there's actually a pretty big range of what's "normal" so I'm not concerned. I spent a lot of time researching poop before saying, you know what, he's pooping and peeing enough, gaining weight, and sleeping as well as I could expect, so I'm not going to stress about his diapers not always being textbook.

It's normal. The poops tend to slow down in frequency as LO ages.
