Meconium (also spelled merconium) is the first feces of a newborn. It is a black, sticky substance. Regular feces appear a few days after birth. The name literally means "poppy juice" in Latin. Meconium aspiration syndrome occurs when infants take meconium into their lungs during delivery. It is frequently fatal.

Juzcuz, I am pretty sure toxic shock is not caused by meconium. The biggest fear is if the baby poops just before delivery and then when he takes his first breath aspirates it into his lungs.

That doctor was pointing out the fact that Conner could not have been born and then later killed as he still had that first poop in him when found.
