all babies strain to poo, they go all sorts of shades of red and purple even for the sloppiest of nappies.
My midwife did recommend that if i thought little CRX was a bit bunged up that i use one carton of the premixed milk (you can get single cartons of the SMAs) as there was a slightly different formula that seemed to loosen the bowels.
If your baby is pooing every other day then i wouldnt be too concerned, but mention it to your midwife / health visitor next time you see them.
