Hey... I understand your concern . Loose motion in babies are stressful to both baby and mother. But do not worry... more often than not babies pass small amount of stool 3-7 times a day . If that is not the case then I will need more data .
Kindly consult so we can discuss this matter further.
Next Steps
This is a good recovering illness . Proper planning will definitely make it comfortable for the baby.
Health Tips
Do not worry. It will be alright .
