My 5-month-old baby passes watery stool while exclusively on breastfeed. Please help.

Hello doctor,

My baby is 5 months old and passing watery stools from second month onwards. Though he is gaining good weight and is a happy baby is always waking up with a smile and achieving all milestones. Now his weight is 17.64 lbs. He is exclusively breastfed and does not have colic.

My concerns are as below:

He is passing loose motions, when he passes it is a blowout and foul smelling, slightly greenish color with watery consistency. This is happening for more than two weeks. He passes motions maximum three to four times a day with moderate and less quantity. He is again not affected with this as weight gain is good with proper feeding and overall activities are fine. The only thing is he is on and off getting mild rashes near the anus area, which we take care by applying dusting power, rash cream, and frequent diaper change keeping the area clean.

Please suggest if passing loose motion is fine by breastfeeding baby and please suggest good rash cream also.

Baby seems to be teething and drools heavily, and always want to chew or put hands or objects in the mouth. He is not very much cranky but from some days he seems to be restless. He does not cry but keeps on shouting a lot. He keeps quite only when he is placed in his stroller and roam around the house. Please let me know what I can do to reduce his drooling and comfort his gums.
