A. it is very common that after starting complementary food after completion of 6 months of age you may find undigested food as well as parts of the food directly in the stool but there is no need to worry regarding this pattern. the digestive process of the child is developing and will improve with increasing age of the child. it is important to give only eafsily digestible food to the child and the quantity should be increased gradually and you can take help of mixer as well as filter sieve to make the food puree and then give it to the child instead of giving direct solid food at this age. avoid a particular food which is not digested properly.

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. But it is really very difficult to say anything without proper examination of the baby. It is advisable to get the baby evaluated by a doctor and follow doctors advise properly. You can also book online doctor’s appointment on FirstCry where the doctor can help you and guide you properly Thanks and take care
