What Are The White Specks In My Daughter S Stool?
My 4 month old daughter whom is exclusively breast feed has been having white specks in her stools for weeks now. She has also had what I call a white plug in her stool. It is perfectly round & best compared to the looks of a pellet. It is soft, or can be easily pressed down. I am assuming it is dried milk. Should I be concerned? Any ideas of the cause?

just check for any rashes on buttocks. if no then no need to worry.
if this problem increases then give half sachet of sporolac sachet fof three days.
