#asktheexpert why white mucus in baby potty?

A. White mucus in a 4-month-old baby's stool can be due to mild digestive issues, food intolerance (if formula-fed), or infections. It may also indicate excess saliva from teething or a minor gut irritation. If your baby is otherwise active, feeding well, and has no fever, it's usually not a concern. However, if mucus persists for several days, is accompanied by blood, diarrhea, fever, or vomiting, consult a pediatrician to rule out infection, allergies, or digestive issues.
