A member asked:
My 11wks breastfed baby is passing stool immediately after every feed. its the 2nd time in 2 weeks this is happening. should i consult a pediatrician?

Not necessarily: Breast fed babies can stool some after every feed (usually a little smear) or have a cradle filler once a week. I would not consider this unusual or worrisome. If you have another reason to think baby is sick that would be what I would pursue.
