Q.
#asktheexpert My 11 month had severe constipation ever since he was started on solids and formula. From a few days i started livomyn drops for him twice a day. After that for the First two times he pooped on altrnate days as usual, just that the poop consistency was not as hard as in the past. Then for next two days he pooped twice a day. And today he has pooped after every meal. 4 times. The first 3 poop were not watery but kind of in a paste form. The last poop was with a little more water in it. Today i skipped livomyn drops for him in the night. I am confused if its diarrhea?
