Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Infants show great variations in colour, consistency and frequency of motions. The symptoms you mentioned do not need any treatment. Continue with exclusive breastfeeding for first 6 months of age.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Archana Verma
