Hai... A few questions for you...
1. Is the baby exclusively breast fed?
2. Is there any skin or perianal rash?
3. Is there any history of atopy or allergy in family.
What your baby is having could be a cow's milk protein allergy. I suggest you go off all mik & milk products call completely & exclusively breast feed your baby. If weight is normal....do not worry. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
