General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and welcome.

Toddlers can have some trouble with digestion and the food he/she consumes especially during the transition from mothers milk to supplement food.

Also a possible cause could be liver abnormalities which can cause irregularities with digestion. I would not worry too much and just wait it out for a while. If you have introduced any new supplement food, discontinue it until further instructions from your doctor.

Best wishes.
