Pale poo!

Ds is 13 months and switched to just cows milk 3 weeks ago. He was previously bf.

Since switching his poo has been very pale. He's eating normally and has a good appetite. Is this normal when they go onto cows milk?

Yes they do change colour then and take a few weeks to settle down

Can also happen if they get a virus, not sure why! See your doctor if they are white rather than just pale as this can indicate a liver problem.

Ds's poo was pale, loose and skinny, only changed to normal when we took him off dairy - is intollerant - might just be ur lo adjusting to new diet and guy getting used to it
