normal. Try a probiotic. It might help to firm things up a bit.

Yes, with my DS it has been awful, he was on amoxicillin for an ear infection. I make sure I give him probiotics.

culturelle kids, they are packets of powder you can mix into anything they drink
ETA you can also ask your ped just for peace of mind but I was able to give them to my 8 month old DD when she had diarrhea.

We use Flourastor and empty the ingredients into their milk.

Yes, but definitely load them up with probiotics. Not fun
