Formula and poo

We switched our 18 day old to formula 2 days ago...
How often should we expect her to poo? She hasn't had one today! Last one was late last night.

Thank you!!
Same with our little one, she doesn't seem uncomfortable at all so I'm hoping she isn't constipated 👍🏼👍🏼

My son has been formula fed since birth and after day 5 started to only poo every 2-3 days and when he did it was very loose and even if we changed him within 2 mins of hearing him pass it would already be leaking up his back. Midwifes and HV all assured us this was normal etc but he was getting himself very upset and in pain. Eventually after advice on here we switched formula and within 2 days he began pooing with every feed. If the consistency is okay and baby isn’t in pain I’d say it’s perfectly normal :)

Tuesday - Sunday ds poops every day. Once a day. Never on a Monday. Never. It’s odd...
