Hello doctor, my daughter is 7 months old. her stool is semisolid and occasionally watery since birth. she s having 3 meals a day along with milk 3 times. she passes stool 3-4 times a day, which ranges from solid to watery. i got her stool tested and its greenish grey, pH is 6 and semigested. i gave her antibiotic for 5 days, but there was no change. i ve stopped wheat products. she had IUGR, now she s not gaining weight properly. what should i do? Sara
Good morning.!! Babies up to 1 year can pass stools even up yo 15 times a day. Consistency can range from solid, semi-solid to watery. Colour can be anything (worry only if she passes fresh blood). You need to worry only when she becomes dull, not taking feeds, not passing enough urine per day (minimum 6 times) etc. Consult your doctor if any of these red flags are seen. Thank you, have a nice day.!!!
