A member asked:

Why does my 5 month old daughter have seedy mucus stool? very runny and sometimes yellow.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May need to test the: If breast feeding this may be normal but if truly seeing mucus you may want to have the stool tested. Allergies to formula could be causing some inflammation and a change may be needed. Some simple tests could help evaluate.
