POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy6 months agoA. It’s normal for a 16-month-old to go through phases of increased breastfeeding, especially during growth spurts, teething, or seeking comfort. However, if your toddler is relying too much on breastfeeding and not eating enough solid foods, it might affect digestion.
About the Sticky Poop & Farting:
Possible Causes:
Too much breast milk – Can lead to looser, sticky stools since breast milk is easily digestible. Teething – Increased saliva swallowing can make poop sticky. Diet changes – Eating more dairy, fatty foods, or less fiber may cause this. Mild indigestion – Could be due to an imbalance in gut bacteria. What You Can Do:
✅ Encourage More Solids – Offer fiber-rich foods (banana, oats, dalia, veggies).
✅ Hydration – Ensure water intake if she’s eating solids.
✅ Monitor Dairy Intake – If consuming cow’s milk or cheese, reduce it slightly.
✅ Probiotics – Curd or buttermilk can improve digestion.
