pale creamy coloured poo

[bagpussmice]

dd2 is nearly 3 and since she has been potty trained which is about a month I have noticed that her poo is quite a pale colour.. maybe I never noticed it so much in her nappy. She also poos such a lot, 4-5 times a day.
Apart from that she appears healthy, not off her food or anything. She drinks a lot of milk, but always has.

My ds used to get this when he drank a lot of milk .He also poos quite a lot! He poos about twice a day now but used to do more.Sorry not much help really.

pale poo is too much fat i think? don't you get pale poo with jaundice?
or of course it could just be that she eats pale food! sorry i'm not being much help am i?

My DDhad very pale poo, and i took her to the doctor and was told its a bug in the stomach. It went on its own, she wasnt poorly in any other way. I was told that lots of milk wont make their poo pale.

dd went through this and we we're told by her specialist it's too much dairy in her diet

When DS1 was a baby he had liver problems, and they told me one of the warning signs of a liver problem (like jaundice as alexsmum says) is pale poo (caused by the liver not breaking down red blood cells effectively, I think). Not saying this is what it is, but might be worth a trip to the doctors just in case.
