Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Is he receiving breast milk or formula milk? If exclusively fed with breast milk, we need not worry. If on formula feeds, try withholding the same for 1 week if this is consistent

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
