My 21 month old ds has a lot of runny, soft stools & they are a yucky yellow ( sorry if tmi)color. I am wondering if he may have food allergies? We have our oldest boy on a gluten/dairy free diet. We just put Micah on it too, to see if it helps?!! I am wondering though if it is something I should get checked out bya dr.?

If this is his new 'normal', then yeah, it couldn't hurt to have him checked out. If, however, it has just started, then experimenting with his diet is not a bad option. Any chance he is cutting his 2yr molars yet?? My kids both get the most awful bm's when they cut molars.

i would also suggest looking to see if he is cutting any teeth. Grayce Anne had the worst diapers ever ( we've been changing for 7 years straight) when she was getting her 2 year molars. ( she still has two to get)

Thanks everyone
I had been thinking teeth too, but it seems to have been like that for quite some time? The funny thing is it seems like he has a full mouth of teeth, i don't investigate in there very much these days, dangerous territory!!! But I kind of wonder where he would even put new tetth?? lol
