How often does your LO poop?

With DD #1 I EBF & she pooped everyday. Never had an issue with colic, being gassy or what I ate.  Now I have 4 week old twins & they go 2-4 days without pooping. I know this can be normal for BF babies, but they are cranky, gassy & seem uncomfortable like they need to go but can't. Maybe its colic & I'm just looking for an answer, idk.

    DS is 4-5 days and probably less during growth spurts. He uses everything!

    Geeze, now I'm worried! My LO poops 4-6 times a day still. He is 5 months and ebf. He is still only 13th percentile weight. It's like he poops out everything he takes in almost immediately after a feeding. Anyone else? When should the frequency lessen?

    My girls are 15 mos and poop 1-3x/day. As infants, they usually pooped daily but we sometimes would go a day or two w/o.

    This was DD. She started pooping less around 7-8m once she started eating more solid food, but she's still a 1-3x/day pooper. If your DS is sticking to his own weight curve, I wouldn't worry :)
