Should I Be Worried About The Yellow Stools During Teething?
my 14 month old son has been having very pale, yellow/beige stools for about a month now. He had a cold virus, but is over that now. Only 6 teeth so still a largely soft, dairy-based diet. Lots of milk, yogurt, cheese. Other foods as well, but about 50% of diet is still dairy. Acting fine. Still very active and sleeping well. Should the pale stools worry me?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, passing the stool in three to four times in day in pediatric age group is normal one if not associated with other clinical symptoms like fever, vomiting, dehydration, in absence these symptoms condition said to be normal one least concern what the color of stool is there, if the child is active then it is nothing to worry at all hope this information helps.
