A member asked:

Sometimes my sons stool in his diaper is half formed and half soft in the same bowel movement. is this normal? he is constipated at times.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Quite normmal: Stool consistency is quite variable depending on diet & stooling pattern. Think of digestion as occurring in segments, not all dietary debris is handled the same way & some material looses its moisture more readily than others.
