Hi ..it is common for infants to pass stool after feeding ...it is ok if the baby is normal and gaining weight ...but if he is passing large quantities of watery stool or if any blood or mucus is there , then it is not normal ...Avoid bottle feeding as it could be a source of infection even though the bottle is being sterilized ... We cannot definitely say if it is due to teething ... though many babies have some common problems during this age ...
