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 oof 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.

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl3 years agoA. hi
well ,the Normal frequency can be 10 times in a day.
so ,if a child looks happy and active, gains enough weight, you should not worry about your child motions frequency.
but if your child passes stool in too much watery consistency , feeling exhausted or irritability etc then you should consult your pediatrician.
