Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...sometimes kids of this age feel the sensation to pass stool as abnormal and cry. Nothing to worry about it as long as she is feeding well and passing urine well.

Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.

Regards - Dr. Sumanth
