Strange stool color of baby
My 45 days old baby is passing stool which is clay like in colour. His formula was changed recently from MMS to Nestle Nan Pro 1. Mother breastfeeds baby as well but she has lactation issues right now. Baby is taking gastica, vit D3 and A-Z drops on doctor's advice. Kindly see the pic of baby's stool and advise.

It is not clay colour. It is well formed neither very tight or lose. I call it normal.
Pl don't keep changing milk formula. The infants don't like it. They stop taking feeds. Always go for breast feeding.
Lots of advantages.
