My Babies Bowel Movements Smell Like POT!

Thread Starter 
Soo this is really strange and I had a talk with Beechnut earlier (about this matter) and they are sending me coupons! Who said I wanted coupons! I want an explanation! I was 'assured' that there was no pot in the baby food :/ Ohhh and I was told that I was the first person to report this! Are you serious!? :

It seems like everytime Natalie eats the Beechnut Guava her bowel movements smell like . . well. . . pot. I'm serious! At first I was not to concerned because it didnt hit me right then and there. . . but when Alfredo was changing her two days ago I came in the room and it smelled like none other than POT!

Ugghhh this is what I get for being lazy and not making my own baby food!

My ds' poop smells like buttered popcorn. Should I call Orville Redenbacher?

And how do you know what pot smells like? (I've never smelled or smoked it.)

Babys got da funk! :

I sort of liked the smell of my babies' breastmilk poop.

I decidedly don't like the smell when my LO eats blueberries.

I once provided childcare for a child who started life on raw cow's milk and wheat flour (adopted from another country)--his gut flora was so out of whack that I kept his diaper pail on the porch.

But pot? I'm a mom who's been around the block, and pot is a new one to me!

I don't know. There could be something to this. She's obviously pretty worried about it. I would be, too, if my little guy's poop started smelling like a drug. I would stop giving her the food that's causing it and see if it goes away. And I would also try to make my own baby food, if that's feasable for you.

As to how she knows what it smells like, maybe she had friends who did it. I had friends who smoked pot and they were always sticking it in my face to smell it because that's how you can tell the quality. It all smelled gross to me, but they would rave about how good it smelled and everything. To each his own, I guess.

I can't believe someone is getting grief on MDC of all places for knowing what pot smells like.

If you really want to know, take some old hemp rope and burn it.

I feed my baby Beechnut and he's never had anything but normal healthy bowel movements, in smell and consistency....

I have, however, noticed that the different food produce different smells, but I don't think there's anything to worry about! I highly doubt they put pot in their baby food! And think about it this way.... if they do, you'll have a very calm baby with a fantastic appetite!

i spit my coffee out, thank you very much!!!

just the other night i felt the need to put our little one's diaper in the older boys' faces to prove that his poop doesn't stink. yep, bm poop is rather oddly pleasant!

spoony poops. <gag> <spit> <gigglesnort>

Spoony Poop! Ewwwwww....that is about the nastiest phrase I have ever thought about. Hilarious, but nasty.
Frankly, I wouldn't worry about the pot smell. A little weird to be sure, but probably nothing to it. I mean, when I eat spaghetti, it doesn't come out smelling the same way it went in!

I was asking a genuine question, actually. I am not, have never been, and don't plan to be a pot smoker. I've never been exposed to it, either.

The Orville Redenbacher comment was definitely snark.

I don't have any and wouldn't know where to get it. I have no need for rope.

Just curious, have you tried her on any other brands of guava (or the actual fruit)?

Well shoot, I'm out of ideas then. I'd suggest some hemp clothing or something but that would be spendy.
