You need to check the stool for routing and microscopy for ruling out infection which will need antibiotic. If lactose intolerance then starring lactose free formula Will be advised by your pediatrician. In that case breast feeding can aggravate the diarrhoea.
Next Steps
keep in touch with your pediatrician and get stool examination
