My 2 yo was having mucus in stool. i switched from milk to soy and the mucus stopped. now he is having a bm every hour or two. could this be from soy?

Unlikely: He is likely to have a somewhat mild gastroenteritis. Commercial probiotics can shorten the duration of loose stools. Keep him well hydrated with electrolyte balanced fluid such as pedialyte.
