Is this normal? (Poo related)

This contains some tmi moments so sorry in advance!

DS is nearly 16 months. For the last 2 weeks his poo has been a pale creamy colour is this normal or do I need to worry?

He has been pooing much more than normal but having to work very hard to get it out - although its quite fluffy in texture. On sunday he had a massive nappy explosion which I hoped was the end of whatever it was but its no better since.

As he is my first I have no prior experience of this type of stuff and not sure if it is something to worry about/see GP about.

nothing has changed in his diet recently. He has been on cows milk with no problem since 12 months.

sometimes after a bug, stools can often turn a paler colour but 2 weeks is quite a long time and warrants assessment, i think.
