Hi,

My baby is 12 weeks old and has mucus in his stool for about a week now. My doctor said to cut out dairy from my diet (I breastfeed half the time and formula feed the other half). It has been a week and no improvement. Does anyone have any advice? ↓

Al
so
re cutting out dairy It normally takes at least 2 weeks before any releif is seen. Hang in there! It will get better. ↑
