If breastfeeding then to completely feed from one side and to feed from another one next time, if shuffling of one to other done then only thin foremilk is taken by baby which causes loose stools.
If bottle feeding then try to avoid it as much as possible or make sure bottle is properly sterilized, most cases source of infection is bottle.
Next Steps
Enterogermina 1 respule once a day for 3 days
Z & D drops 0.5ml once a day for 10days
