Hi, my son was born on 29th January. He was doing fine until last week. Since then, he has had frequent motions, mostly liquid with tiny white solids. Doctors say he is unable to digest his mothers milk. His occult blood report is positive and reducing agent is also positive. The doctor has suggested feeding him only baby formula. We have consulted two doctors in the past week and are really worried. Please suggest?

These findings suggest lactose intolerance or cow milk protein allergy. Temporary switch to formula as advised, is often done to allow healing. Close pediatric follow up is essential to monitor hydration, weight gain, and stool changes.
