The stool depends on three important factors: proper regular intake of solids, ( including fruits and vegetables),adequate liquid intake &toilet training.
If you use sorbitol or other laxatives, the problem will not be resolved.
First,concentrate on above points with patience.
Since the paediatrician has seen your child, I assume that the examination is normal.
