Poo normal colour on outside but pale inside?!

Okay, so this is a bit random, but my daughter did a poo yesterday in her potty and I chucked it down the toilet, but it failed to flush.

A few hours later when I saw it, it was pretty pale. Today, when she did a poo, whilst it's dark brown on the outside, if you squish it (I know, urghh) it's actually much paler inside.

She was sick (vomiting) the other week, but I stupidly googled and immediately saw all the stuff about liver problems.

Should I wait, or mention to doctor?

If happening persistent and other symptoms you're worried about eg yellow skin/eyes, losing weight, generally unwell; have her seen at GP. Assuming not a very young baby?

If none of those, likely to be just one of those funny things.

That can definitely happen after a stomach bug for a week or two
