A. if you are giving only breastfeeding then there is a 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. need of probiotics (sachet superflorax gg once a day can be given) and zinc has to be evaluated. in the meantime kindly continue breastfeeding to prevent dehydration. you can givex ors also if water loss is more if there is blood in the stool then kindly meet the doctor immediately because it can be dysentery also.

A. For initial six months to 8 months the doctor is a constipation is completely normal if the child is passing sufficient amount of urine and taking all the feeds properly then there’s absolutely no problem with the constipation also
