Hi. Passing frequently normal stool is OK. Sometimes it can be due to mild infection also. Make sure all the food given to the baby is clean. If baby is otherwise well no need to bother about frequent normal stools.
There could be several causes of crying in teething children. One has to rule out common things like hunger, colic, wet diaper, redness around anus due to frequent wiping, insect bite, tight clothing or bangles etc. Sometimes there will not be any cause. May be the child just wants to be carried or may need a teether to keep biting. If the baby has excessive crying and fever then we need to think of some infection.
Next Steps
Pls see if the baby has any of the above common causes and rectify.
