A. Thank you for your response. my son is feed with both breast feeding and formula.His stool was tested and Doctor said there is an infection and it would be gone as days passes. Right now he passes yellowish watery stool 3-4 times day and sometimes with whitish granules. currently my son is 3 months old and his haemoglobin levels became low, which was 16 that was tested after 10 days of his birth and doctor prescribed iron supplement to him.can you please suggest if the medication is proper or anything should be corrected.

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 superflora gg once a day can be given) and zinc shas to be evaluated. in the meantime kindly continue breastfeeding to prevent dehydration. you caxn 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.
