A member asked:
Hello docs, my baby is 13 months and i have recently weaned him off breast milk. he now has whole cow's milk and since then his poop frequency has increased and also it's pale yellow (mixed with brown at times) in color.is it normal? no other problem?

The color of poop starts out as ultra green (bile color) and transitions through yellows to browns based on germ action in the gut. The shorter poop stays inside the more toward green it can become/longer-brown. Increasing frequency leads to the yellow. I wouldn't fret over the finding.
