<human>: My 9 month old baby is very active. No fever, cold, crankiness. Feeds on solid from 6th month onwards regularly. But from past 8 days she is passing stools about 4-5 times aday. Her stools are normal sometimes and sometime its loose and creamy. What is the reason for passing stools so many times??
<bot>: Thank you for posting your question. Increased stool frequency may occur normally in a lot of babies and may depend on the type of diet consumed. Also since you mentioned that the stools are mostly of normal consistency, it is most likely to be a normal occurrence. However, considering the age, it could also be a mild viral infection of the intestine. In any case, all that needs to be done is keeping the child HY Chat Doctor.  You may breastfeed more frequently, use oral rely
