Yellow poop in a 15-month-old?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Yellow poop is generally considered normal in a 15-month-old. As babies transition to solid foods, stool color and consistency change frequently. Yellow color usually comes from bile pigments and is especially common in babies still nursing.

However, consult your pediatrician if:

  • Poop is white or clay-colored (may indicate a bile duct issue)
  • There is red or black color (possible bleeding)
  • Diarrhea (very loose, frequent stools) lasts more than 24 hours
  • The baby has fever, vomiting, fussiness, or poor appetite along with the yellow stool
  • Signs of dehydration appear (no wet diaper for 8+ hours, sunken eyes, little to no tears when crying)

Yellow color by itself is not a cause for concern. If your baby's overall health is good, you can continue to monitor the stool color.
