Mucus in loose stool

Question

Asked for Female, 28 Years

My baby will be 11 months old in a few days. 10 days ago she had a mild cold for 3 days, fever for 2 days, vomiting for 1 day and watery loose motions. She is active and fine now. But she still has loose motions, it's not watery but it's semi solid and every time the texture and colour of the potty is different. Sometimes it's pale yellow, mustard, dark green. Since yesterday I can see mucus and something like curd in her potty. I used to give her Aptamil formula milk and breastfeed her. Now on the pediatrician's advice I give her Nan Lo lac formula milk. I have attached the photos.

First of all if the watery loose stools are getting semi solid with the child active and feeding well, could indicate resolution of the viral fever. And you could wait for the consistency to normalise. But if there is persistent fever, with decreased oral intake and activity with foul smelling stools/ blood in stools, kindly get the baby evaluated by a pediatrician. Also would suggest not to rely on formula feed and give appropriate home cooked complementary feeds.
