What Does Beige Color Stool Indicate?
My 20 month old has had 2 diapers with tan/beige colored stools. She hasn't had much of an appetite the last few days....stomach bug going around and we think she has had a little touch of it. So we haven't given her much milk. She usually drinks 15-20 oz a day with a little juice and normal colored stools. Her tan stools have been soft and a creamy consistency. Is this something to be concerned about?

Hello,
Thankyou for your question.
Since only change of colour can occur due to decreased diet or having some medicines .If he is not getting stomach ache,continuous crying or fever then it is not worrysome symptom.But if he gets other symptoms as mentioned above then get a stool test done and discuss with the doctor.
