A. It is very normal for small children that sometimes they will not pass stool for 10 days also and sometimes they will pass stool more than 7 to 8 times per day. If the consistency of the stool is Semi solid to semi liquid do not worry about the frequency of the stool. No medicines needs to be given in such a case but you have to meet the doctor only if the stool consistency is hard.x It is advisable to give only milk to the child and nothing else before completion of 6 months of age

Q. Hi sir, My baby girl is 11 months old. She used to have bowel movements once in a day. She will sit in potty. But suddenly from the past 4-5 days this behaviour changed and now she is reluctant to calmly sit in potty. She is having bowel movements thrice in a day or even no movements. That too just small small poops. one day she had stomach ache also and when she did pooping it's gone. Is this a cause for concern? or is this normal ? Kindly reply sir.
