Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. 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 and zinc has to be evaluated.
in the meantime. kindly continue breastfeeding to prevent dehydration.
you can give 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.

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. Breastfed baby poop is considered normal when it's a mustard yellow, green or brown color. It is typically seedy and pasty in texture and may be runny enough to resemble diarrhea. Healthy breastfed stools will smell sweet (unlike regular bowel-movement odor).Some breastfed babies have 4 to 12 bowel movements per day. Your baby may also pass stool after each feeding.
