Stool color: The color of stool will vary a lot in children. Although diet can change the color of stool, milk is not known to change it. Normal stool ranges from brown to pastel yellow. If your toddler has any other symptoms like yellow skin or yellow eyes or is running a fever, then look at those symptoms and consider a problem-seek help, have tests done.

NOT REALLY: Too much milk intake is not recommended after 1 year of age. They need more solid food. Give the toddler mixed balanced food. From 1 to 2 year, vitamin-d milk, then 2%, 8 ounces 2-3 times daily is enough. Bring the stool issue to the attention of toddler's pediatrician, bring some stool during next visit so that the doctor gets a look and comment.
