What Causes White Dots In The Feces?

My 3 month old baby, who is formula fed, has white dots in her poo. Her poo is always a mix of firm, runny and watery. I have tried her on lactose fee formula and it made her constipated, the easy to digest formula is what she is currently on. Do you have any thoughts about the right formula for her?

Hello,

The white dots are probably unrelated to formula feeds. Possible cause like baby acne must be ruled out. You can try good quality formula feeds like duphalac must be ruled out.

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

Regards,
