What does frequent grainy pasty stool mean in a two old? 2 to 3 times a day for a about week and half.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stool: Sounds completely normal variant of stool. 2-3 year usually have 2-4 formed stools a day. Vegetable intake makes it grainy, formed, sometimes pasty. As long as there is no pain, vomiting and the child is eating well, don't worry. Make sure he pees 4-6 times a day.
