Absolutely NO relation to the vaccination!!
The number of motions is not important at this age,and may vary from 10-12 a day,after every feed to just one motion after 2-3 days.
BOTH are normal as long as the consistency is soft and formed.
If very loose,add Enterogermina vial half vial twice a day for 5 days.
Maintain regularity and strict hygiene in feeds.
If not improving in 3 days OR accompanied by other symptoms like vomiting or abdominal distension or dullness and refusal to feed,consult your paediatrician.
