Thank for asking
Your query being appreciated, it may not be worm because worm infestation in this age is very uncommon but condition needs to be confirmed, more or less it could be due to the diet taken, if the baby is doing fine then it is nothing to worry, if the condition persist then stool needs to be sent for laboratory testing hope this information helps.
