A. no it is not diarrhoea it is normal loose watery stools is considered normal in babies. Some amount of foam is due to gas along with poop u check  for any foul smell or any change in color and consistency of poop. If only loose stool u can give zinc drops Z and D drops 1ml once a day and satchets of Econorm/ enterogermina/syp darolac or any other probiotics for 3  days. Give ORS  Fever with pain in abdomen if present can b due to infection n needs a doctor consult soon

A. hi usually it is normal among breastfed babies to pass stool once in 7 days or 10 times in a day with runny or watery consistency. so if your child looks happy healthy and active, gains enough weight then no need to worry about anything.
