Baby poop

My little one is 2 1/2 weeks. She is eating great breast feeding and had gained ample amount of weight at her 2 week appointment, but she has stopped having poopy diapers every day. She is only having a poopy diaper about every 3 days. She isn't fussy or uncomfortable acting and she has plenty of wet diapers. Just wondering if this is normal or should I check in with pediatrician.? Any thoughts??

Re: Baby poop

  • Normal. Bf babies can go days without a bowel movement. I think once it hits a week concern can arise dont quote me. Their system is becoming efficient and they create little waste. I hear they are quite explosive too! Good luck :)
  • Normal. I just asked my pedi about this. I read it doesn't usually start this early but my guys are 5 weeks and get mostly breast milk...for the past couple of weeks they have only been pooping every 2-3 days. My pedi said it's normal and they may start to get uncomfortable by day four or so. When it does come it's a lot!
