Hi,

My son has been doing potty 6-7 times a day. It is not watery. But kind of looks like pured food. I am worried because he used to do potty only 2-3 times a day and now it is 6-7 times for the past 5 days. I checked to see if he is teeting but as i am a new mom i am not able to tell if he really is teeting(I dont see any tooth there Question ).

He is very active and plays around all day. Eats well as well. But goes to potty within like 5mins of feeding him. He is on bottle feed for the past 6 months. I havent given him any new food. Should i be worried ?

Please reply asap.

Thanks,
Sarah

It could be teething. Is he drooling more or putting things in his mouth to chew? Could also be a tummy bug? There are lots of viruses around.. If you dont think he is teething and your worried you should take him tp your gp.

To be honest, loosish stools for 5 days, I'd pop him along to docs or HV and get him checked out, likely nothing.

You could try a few binding foods like bananas or boiled eggs.

Good luck
