15 month old poops 2x a day?
My son is almost 15 months old and on the thin side. I will be asking our doctor about it when we go next week but wondered if it was abnormal that he poops twice a day. Does anyone else have a little one that poops so often? I wonder if there is something going on that he is pooping so much and so thin.

DD is also 15m and poops 2x/day on average.
She's small, but a preemie. Pedi asked if she has "normal" bowel movements and I said yes because that is normal for her. Diet is a big factor. LO still gets some breastmilk, along with juice, cow's milk and a variety of foods.

We are still breastfeeding also.
Gross question but thanks for responding.
DS is 16 months and is big (95% for height, 70% for weight). He poops 2x a day and is on table foods and whole milk.
Our kiddo poops 2 times a day on average. Is this your son's norm or has it changed recently? Does it smell funny? Is it runny or formed? Is he gassy/having pain? I would mention any of the above to the Dr when you go see him. Obviously your doctor would be the one to ask but to me it seems completely normal.
Kayla's top is 5X, and i'm not talking about when she is sick. She's got a monster appetite and a killer metabolism. I'm jealous!
My son is the same way. I have only ever worried when he has been ill and refused food, but generally he eats plenty at every meal plus snacks and his milk, and he just goes often. His pedi was not concerned at all-- my son is middle of the road for weight and above average for height.
