What Causes White Lumps In Stool?
My baby is 8 months old and has started on formula. Ive noticed white chunky bits (almost like cottage cheese) in her stools. We went off the formula and back to breastmilk which i had frozen and her stools retuned to normal. We started a new formula and I am seeing some white chunks as well, not as many but a few. Is this cause to be concerned? Should I try a different formula?

Hi...if the baby is not having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. This minor changes in stools are common during starting of formula. You can continue.
