Doctor: HiWelcome to the HCMI understand your concerns but don't worry. Infants are prone to  wide variation in frequency, consistency and colour of poops. I appreciate that you have kept your baby on exclusive breastfeeding. So the chances of infective diarrhea is not likely.So, continue with regular feeds and no other treatment  is required. Take care
