Length of time: If it’s just a few days,I would look at any dietary changes as that may be affecting this.The food particles are there when the intestines are moving things through quickly without time to break them down fully.This often happens with children.If she is otherwise well (no fever, vomiting, normal behavior, urinating well),I would not worry.If these symptoms continue or worsen,please see her doctor.
