My baby is 8 month old making slate color poop covered with little white . what is the reason for this. i need to do any check up ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slate colored poop: Probably getting excess amount of dairy products. As long as the baby's bowel movements are regular i would not be concerned.
