What Could Cause White Powdery Chunks In Poop In 3 Weeks Old Child?

Hi I tried giving my 3 week old 2 oz enfamil formula today. He was a bit cranky about 2-3 hours later and when he pooped, it seemed like there were tiny white powdery chunks in there. Foes that mean he got constipated or didn't digest formula well. Should I try giving it again ?

Hi...don't worry... Irs quite normal when feed is changed or new feed is introduced. You need not worry unless there's blood in stools or allergic sort of red rash over the body.. Happy to help anytime.
