Hello doctor,My son is 7 months old. He is going loose motion after taking milk or any food. This is happening 5 to 7 times since 2 days. Present i am using Nutrolin B Syrup, 0,25 ml three times a day since 2 days. Can you please give the reason for this. I am very much worried.
Let me assure you that in case of a baby of this age you need not worry if the child passes stool 5-7 times a day, and it is absolutely normal. Most formula milks are cow milk based and hence difficult to digest. Do not give the formula that the child cannot tolerate. Undigested food material in the intestines can be degraded by intestinal bacteria which might lead to lose stools. Another cause of loose stool in child Chat Doctor. In such cases it is best to avoid giving formula milk or cow milk for a week or so. Soy based milk like Soil or Zero lac may be given, however. Furthermore, at this age, milk is actually an optional component as the nutrients can be procured from other semi-solid food principles.
