Hi,Teenarji,
Thanks for query,
Usually a child passes stool 3-4 times in a week so do not worry,
Give him more liquid like fruit juices,veg soup,water.
Give solid food like rice mixed with dal,pulses etc.
Give milk undiluted.
if you are giving formula which contain iron may also give hard stool.
Ok and bye.
I find this answer helpful
