Question
How should a five-month-old baby’s stool be?
Answer
Generally speaking, a five-month-old baby should have one bowel movement a day without experiencing diarrhea or other symptoms. The baby should be given timely fluids and the stool condition should be observed. If there are any abnormal symptoms, such as changes in the frequency or shape of the stool, or accompanied by discomfort, it may indicate digestive system issues or other health problems. Immediate medical consultation and appropriate treatment should be sought.
