A member asked:
Sometimes my two and a half year old has sour smelling breath and stool. he seems very healthy and has no problems. what could be the reason?

Not to worry: If your child's growth is normal and is confirmed by pediatrician's growth charts and he has been healthy then there should be no reason to be concerned. He may reflux from time to time and have bad breath or not digest food well from time to time, but if he is growing well and has no other symptoms I would not be worried.
