A. if you are giving only breastfeeding then there is a possibility that slightly loose to semi solid stool may be present intermittently but if you see that it is totally watery and also you are giving outside milk then it is advisable to get the child examined by the doctor to rule out any digestion problem or any infection and need of probiotics and Zinc has to be evaluated. in the meantime kindly continue breastfeeding to prevent dehydration you can continue breastfeeding andf if the loss of water through the watery stool is more you can give ORS also also if you observe that there is blood in the stool then kindly meet the doctor immediately because it can be dysentery also
