Baby pooing a lot

My 9 month old has a cold and seems to be pooing 4-5 times a day at the moment. He’s formula fed with 2 meals a day (breakfast and dinner). Is this normal or should I take him to the GP? He doesn’t have a temperature or anything. Apart from being a little more clumsy than usual he seems ok otherwise.

My little boy (almost 10m) always does about 3-5 💩 a day 😂. He’s on 3 meals a day and 3 bottles of formula, he has a big appetite. I think the range of ‘normal’ poo’s is pretty vast. Unless they don’t seem right or any blood etc I wouldn’t worry! (Of course if you were worried always worth a call to the GP). Certain foods make them go more too x

@Naomi ah ok thanks. Ours only normally poos once a day so this is unusual for him. I’ll see if it slows down otherwise might go to the GP

I know this seems strange but is he teething? My LG has been pooping more the last few days and she's cut a tooth today. I know her friend was the same when teething. Apparently it's because they are swallowing a lot more dribble? Don't know how true it is mind? 😂
