BF moms- let's talk poop!

DS went from what seemed like pooping all day long as a newborn, to pooping once a day, than to every other day and now at 4 months pooping every 4-5 days. Is this normal? He has like 1 giant blow out every 4-5 days and that's it!

He does however soak every diaper.

DS is 4 months 2 weeks today. He pooped like crazy when he was a newborn now he is pooping once a day sometimes twice a day. He hasn't missed a day yet. But I think it's normal to go every few days.

I read that it's normal for them to go a few days w.o. pooping.

DS is 2 months. He was going 1-2x a day but this week he has gone just once (monday).

He also soaks his diaper.

DD is 4months and she goes about 2x's a day, sometimes 3. How many lbs is your DS? DD is still a peanut at 11lbs 8oz (as of 8/26) maybe that has something to do with it.

DS is prob a little over 15 lbs. now. He doesn't seem uncomfortable but I start to worry when it's been 4 days and he hasn't gone- that's gotta affect him somehow!

That's how DD was too. As long as he's not uncomfortable and straining it's totally normal.

my son was the same way - before we started food at 6 months - he pooped once a week from about 3 months to 6 months and was not constipated - bm is just more efficient therefore less waste

it is totally fine as long as they are not straining and are not gassy to the point of unhappy because of it
