5-7times stool passage is normal for the age if the child is gaining weight appropriately and is otherwise active. Enterogermina is not needed. If your child is formula fed and passing foamy stools change of formula may be needed.

This frequency is normal for this age . Watch for consistency ..if the stools are watery and baby is dull and not taking feeds ..kindly get an examination done . Also stools depends upon what kind of feed8ng he is receiving.
