Why does a NB's pooping "schedule" change?
Is it because their digestive systems are more mature?
Sasha pooped CONSTANTLY. Always a ton of poop in her diaper. Today, she had her first real poop at 5:00PM, since last night!
She also hasn't really had poop when she wakes up in the AM in the last 5 days or so.
This seems to coincide with her sleeping through the night, and dropping the middle of the night feeding.

Re: Why does a NB's pooping "schedule" change?
Samantha's changed as well. This afternoon was the first poop she's had since Friday! I believe as their digestive system matures, they need to poop less and less. This change in Samantha's bowel movements started last week. She goes either every other day now, or a day longer than that.

Re: Why does a NB's pooping "schedule" change?
Totally natural but it's hard not to get nervous. DS just started cereal and he's pooping less now. He never pooped a lot to begin with but I've been assured it's completely normal.
They are a constant mystery these children of ours!

Re: Why does a NB's pooping "schedule" change?
Alexa poops every 2-2.5 days and then poops 2X a day for a day or so and then doesn't go again for a few days.....
The lovely thing is now that she only goes every few days her poop really smells 
I know BF babies don't poop as often because their bodies tend to use almost all of the rbeastmilk and therefore have less waste

Sasha totally disproves that theory!
i read that a normal size nb poop is the size of a quarter. a quarter is one of sasha's farts.

Ha, that's funny! My DD also! She poops a ton at this point, but I have noticed that it's not every single diaper change like it was before. Now it's just a few times a day. I know it's normal as they get older for them to poop less. Think about it- you don't poop 17 times a day, right?

I can't even begin to describe the volume of Samantha's poops these days!

Re: Why does a NB's pooping "schedule" change?
I was going to ask the same thing. DS would poop 3-4 times a day in the first week. Now he goes once a day and it seems like he struggles. I was wondering if this was normal.
