Is There Any Treatment Needed For The Pasty Bowel Movement?
my son is 3 months old. i switched his formula from Similac Advance to Babies R us's version about 2 weeks ago. My question is this...is it normal for him to have a pastey grayish bowel movement? he eats well with a couple spit ups a day, but nothing to cause me concern.

Thanks for following up. Your baby does not receive breastfeeding, he eats formula and you change feeding, that's why color of stool changed to gray, it is normal, it will be like as adult , because child is growing. Pasty consistence is normal in his age, he doesn't have constipation.That's why don't worry. Feed baby every 3hours or when he demand, don't give him pasifiers. Do massage and sunbathing every day.
