Are Bright Yellow Watery Stools In An Infant A Cause For Concern?

My 5.5 month baby has very watery poo and has had this for a while now. He is breastfed, feeds well, is happy, alert and playful which is why I have not worried about it but the colour seems to have changed to a bright yellow. It s watery to the extent of if I move or don t change him within minutes it is everywhere

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. If your kid is clinically with out any problems and healthy then nothing to worry. It is usual to have semi loose stools in intervals. You can start weaning as he is 5.5 months. You can start with pureed fruits ,tubers etc. Cereals like rice also can be started also. This will decrease such loose stool episodes also.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
