Breastfed baby question 4.5 months old.

Does anyone elses little one poop not so often while breastfeeding around 4 months? Sometimes its 5 days and my pediatrician told me that's not normal, but I read it is because bm is perfect for babies so they produce less waste. Any one?

  • Doc's in our office think its DEF normal... It can be more prevalent in iron enhanced formula fed babies... for you and breastfeeding... you could try drinking a bunch more water yourself. That could help. Baby is still too young for miralax. We do recommend that for our babies who r a little older. 

    Good Luck!
