My 11 month old has had whst looks like pepper flakes in some of her recent stools. Shes healthy.  Breatfeeds 3x a day & gets one cup of grrber toddler formula a day. Shes having 3-4 stools a day, and sometimes one is runnier than the others. On the weekends when she isny at daycare she doesnt get the formula usually & doesnt seem to havr as many stools. Could she have a milk allergy?
Hello dear, The symptom of passing loose stools only on days fed with the formula indicates the presence of allergy to the formula feeds. The allergy can either be due to milk or any of the constituent present in the formula feed. If it is due to milk allergy(known as Lactose intolerance), then investigations like Stool acidity test & Stool glucose chromatography will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis. And your child need to avoid diet containing milk & milk products. However, it will be better to consult a Pediatrician to rule out other cause of loose stool.
