Should I Meet Doctor For Frequent Bowel Movement Of A 7 Month Baby?

My daughter is seven months old and for the last 4-5 days her frequency to release motion has increased from 1-2 to 3-5 that too its all liquid now which used to be solid earlier. My daughter seems ok and is norma as earlier. Do we need to do something here ? Should we see our doctor right away ? Please advise.

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your child.

There is no problem upto 2-3 or even four bowl movements, but if it increases it can be a cause of concern.

Second thing is that it according to you is more watery than normal. Because of water loss it may lead to dehydration which can be dangerous to a child too.

Yes, You need to visit a child specialist for further evaluation and proper diagnosis.

Hope my answer will help you and visit us back if you have any questions further.

Regards Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray.
