Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. if you are giving only breastfeeding then there very less possibility that slightly loose to semi solid stool may be present intermittently.
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.
also give both hind and fore milk during breastfeeding as only fore milk will increase diarrhoea and green stool.
need of probiotics (sachet superflora gg once a day can be given) and zinc has to be evaluatsed.
in the meantime kindly continue breastfeeding to prevent dehydration.
you can give ors also if water loss is more
if there is blzood in the stool then kindly meet the doctor immediately because it can be dysentery also.
Uma RamMom of a 7 yr old boy2 years agoA. Hello good evening !! Loose motion is common in babies until 3-5 months, normal 6-8 times a day even after feeding is ok.
Only concern when baby having loose watery motions more than 7-8 times a day foul smell,frothy or any red colour potty.
Check mother's diet if baby having breast milk avoid heavy,unsuitable food which might cause indigestion /loose motions in baby.
