A member asked:
Why would my 10 wk old bottle fed baby have white bits in poop?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Undigested formula: This is a very common complaint from parents. The Infants' immature digestive system takes longer to digest the milk protein. Those "white bits" you see in the stool are actually bits of undigested milk protein. This is absolutely normal and nothing to be worried about
