Usually three : Four loose or watery stools would meet criteria for diarrhea. It can have several causes most of which are benign. The concern is that it is easy for very small children to get dehydrated. It is also important to make sure there is not a more serious cause of the diarrhea. Since very young children can be ill without obvious symptoms many doctors would choose to have her be seen.
