Hello
Thank for asking to HCM
I appreciate your concern, pediatrician gave you correct advise, If I would be doctor of this case then I would not suggest any medicine because it is normal for the infant to pass the stool frequently only thing is it need to be taken care for hydration and second infection need to be ruled out and for that better to get done the stool examination if not being done, else it is nothing to worry, hope this information helps.
