What Causes Frequent Stools?

Hi Doctor,
My daughter is 5 months 26 days old. she is on Enfamil A+ stage 1 since she was four months. 10 days back she passed semi solid d stool 7 times. Our doc OFM susp BDPC for 5 days and Zerolac for two weeks. But she refused to drink Zerolac summarily. So, after consultation with our doc we restarted Enfamil A+ stage 1. But, today she is again passing frequent stools as before.
Kindly advise what to do...
Thanking in advance...

Hi , I'm Dr Suresh K Yadav M D (paediatrics) , I have gone through your question and understand your concerns,

Passing stools 7 times a day can be normal in a 6 month baby , if she is active, accepting feed , passing urine adequately , gaining appropriate weight . She is almost 6 months you can start weaning foods like curd , meshed banana , khichdi, suzi with low lactose burden that help in less stools .

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Take care.
Thanks.
