White stool

2025-08-03 14:08:00
My son is 6 months 12 days old. He is on formila milk (lactogen pro 2) and two time a days breastmilk. He eats banana, apple, moong daal, makhana (fox nut) and potato. Since 3-4 days he is passing white stool. Like his stool is mixed few amount is yellow and green and little amount is white in color. He one day passed very hard stool and while passing some amount of blood was also seen but blood was only seen once.

Appreciate your concern. Your son have started using semisolid foods along with formula milk.. So it's completely normal to have a bit of constipation. Altered bowel habits in infants should be of concerned if he is passing infrequent stools with foul smell,/lots of mucus or bleeding.
Next Steps
maintain a balanced diet. don't Overzealously start feeding your child like 10year old as it will cause bloating, indigestion

Hello parent! Colour of stool is normal - depends on dietary intake of the baby. You can take the following steps to relieve constipation: - oral sips of water after a feed or meal - instead of potatoes give sweet potatoes - can offer fruit puree of pears, mangoes, watermelon, apple and ripe avocados - be sure it’s of a semi runny consistency and not very grainy - similarly can boil and puree vegetables esp broccoli, spinach or any other greens, pumpkin, carrots, etc. These can be mixed with one another or in khitchri too
