Anyone any idea why my 9 week old baby produces the smelliest farts ever? His only intake is milk, so how can he smell so much? Honestly i have never known a baby to be so smelly!

Is he breast or bottle fed?
If breast fed, anything that may upset you, may upset him.
If bottle, maybe you could try a different formula.
Anyway, its best to tell people he takes after his father!
Question Author
He is bottle fed. I have changed his formula twice already but the outcome is still the same. He is very settled on the current formula so I don't want to change it again. The wind isn't upsetting him at all but is more upsetting for the rest of us!!
I wouln't worry about it, better a flatulant baby than one with colic!
aww bless his little smelly bum dont worry it usually settles a little when they start solids, sometimes it maybe hes drinking his milk to fast and takeing in to much air make sure you stop every couple of ounces or so and wind him well x
my 8 wk old baby is breastfed and has a bit of colic at the moment, but his trumps are really loud and he makes such an effort to pass this wind that that its a relief for us all
