A. gastrocolic reflex is very normal in children. in this phenomena the child is having semi solid to solid stool after every episode of of food intake. if the growth of the child is pproper there is no need to worry about this phenomena. it is also advisable to continue curd buttermilk apple and banana which will help in proper digestion of food. usually this phenomena decreases with increasing age of the child

A. If The child is pooping every time after taking of food or a feed at this age that means your child is this suffering with simple indigestion nothing else I’m just going to advise you to consult your paediatrician and start giving medicine for indigestion issue once it settles the things are going to be better
