Bowel movements?

How many times does your LO poop during the day?

Most days, ds is going about 3-4 times a day (pooping). I've read that they are supposed to go after every meal. but that just seems excessive. How the heck am I going to attempt potty training when he's using the bathroom that much?

Is there any way to regulate him? He gets well balanced meals, no junk. Milk and water only.

  • My son definitely does not go that often. He poops once a day usually, sometimes more or less.

  • DS poops once, maybe twice a day.  He's pretty regular - once in the am and then maybe a little turd sometime in the afternoon.

  • DS always goes after breakfast and then again sometime in the afternoon. but there could be additional one or two over the course of the day, depending. so i'd say 2-4.
  • Jeffrey normally poops twice a day but is not predictable about when, so I have been wondering the same thing about potty training!
  • Kate must be super anal retentive. She only goes every 2-3 days, and that's with a daily dose of Miralax. I'm guessing your little ones don't live off of cheese, cucumber and watermelon.
  • We get one normal right after wake-up and a bonus sometimes while avoiding nap time.  I am happy with this schedule :-)  Their systems will change, don't worry.  The next "fun" potty milestone I am waiting for this time around is tub-poops.  Oh how I hate those little buggers!!

    OMG is this a thing? @annieluvsjordan tub pooping is a phase? GAH. GROSS.
