Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. no need to worry about the smell in the stool if the consistency of the stool is normal.
it is very normal that the smell of the stool swould be slightly different in children less than 6 months of age due to the supplements they might be taking as well as due to the maturing digesting system.
if the weight gain of the child is proper and the child is not having any other colic problems then no need to worry d
POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. It's common for a baby's gas to smell like stool since their digestive system is still developing. As long as your baby is having regular bowel movements, the consistency of the stool is good, and she is feeding well, there is generally no need to worry. However, if you notice any of the following, you should contact your pediatrician:
- A significant change in stool consistency (very hard or very watery)
- Blood in the stool
- Baby seems to be in pain or is excessively fussy
- Vomiting
- Signs of dehydration (fewer wet diapers, dry mouth, etc.)
If everything seems normal apart from the smell, it's likely just a normal part of her development. However, if you have any concerns, it's always a good idea to check with your pediatrician for peace of mind.
