Some basics: These often start with a gut virus that may/not have fever or other symptoms. Once it happens digestion of certain nutrients like the sugar in milk are impaired for a week or so. If you are feeding him milk or milk products, stop for a few days (it can act as a laxative). Applesauce & fresh bananas help firm stools. It should firm quickly or have him evaluated.
