  5. Hi, my 9-month-old baby has been passing stool after every feed, usually 6 times or more a day, and it happens within an hour of feeding. Weve done a stool test, and everything came back normal, but my baby is not gaining weight. Can you help me understand what might be causing this and suggest a solution?

Hi there, I understand your concern. Frequent stools after each feed can sometimes be a sign of digestive sensitivity or a mild intolerance, but since the stool test is normal, it's good to rule out infections. I recommend closely monitoring the baby's feeding patterns and discussing with your pediatrician about possible adjustments to the feeding routine or exploring other underlying causes for the weight concerns.
