Yes: Very common and not to worry. Esp if no other symptoms (ie belly pain, cramps, decreased appetite, nausea or vomiting, constipation, fevers, muscle aches, joint pain, skin rashes). Again, if no other symptoms, not to worry. Very normal. Hope this helps. Best of luck. Dr R

Yes: This could be normal. Stool could vary with diet. There are some rare diseases that cause stools to float consistently so if it persists then see your doctor.
