A. It seems like your 1 year and 11-month-old baby is having stools with a gummy or jelly-like consistency. There could be several reasons for this: Dietary Changes: Introducing new foods, such as fruits, vegetables, or different textures of solids, can sometimes cause changes in the stool's consistency. Foods like bananas, certain fruits, or excessive intake of dairy products might result in sticky or jelly-like stools. Digestive Issues: If the baby is having difficulty digesting certain foods or if there is an imbalance in the gut flora, it could lead to abnormal stool consistency. A mild infection or a digestive upset might also cause changes. Dehydration: Not drinking enough fluids or being slightly dehydrated can sometimes cause stool to become thicker or more sticky. Food Intolerance or Allergy: In some cases, an allergy or intolerance (e.g., to dairy or gluten) could cause unusual stool. If the stool pattern persists, a food intolerance could be a possibility. If the stools continue to be abnormal or if there are additional symptoms like fever, irritability, or other changes in behavior, it is a good idea to consult a pediatrician to rule out infections, allergies, or other underlying causes.
