how often does your baby poo?

[OnlyWantsOne]

DD 5.5 weeks exclusive BF

hasnt poo'd in over a week

this seems to be her pattern, she didnt poo for a week before then

was seen by DR yesterday who checked her over, says shes fine :)

wondered what others experiences are?

3-4 a day :o explosive runny and orange!

DS is 4 months and I am still waiting for the promised fall in poo frequency from 4 a day.

Apparently exclusively bf babies rarely become constipated. I have a friend who's baby is also an infrequent pooer.

nearly 6 weeks and every 90 blinking minutes...

DD - 11 weeks old, bottle fed. 1-2 a day sometimes misses a day. As long as your DD is well and not in discomfort, should be ok. A little organic prune juice will shift constipation and tummy massage. Well done on saving planet and not going through shed loads of nappies!!

all the flippin' time - up to 10 times a day! Has been like this since she was born (now 15 weeks) - every time I think they are slowing down, we have a crazy day! Dr and Hv say this is normal too! Costing me an absolute fortune in nappies and is making the night times hideous!

Aww ginger that must be pants!

My DD can go from having a poo every other day, to going about a week then has an explosion!

my 25 week old has never been a frequent pooer - often only every 5-10 days. He's had two short periods of pooing after every feed, i think linked to colds, but apart from that it's very infrequent. even now we have started introducing solids it's still only every 3-4 days.

i think we are the lucky ones - changing a pooey nappy is still almost a novelty to me!

Breastfed babies can go anything from 10 times a day to once every 10 days.

3 weeks and about 5-6 times a day, sometimes more.

My DS at that age was about 5-8 times a day but my nephew (same age) was once a week... every Thursday, it was quite funny.

my DD - all the time (awful nappy rash..)

my DS - every 10 days (nappy from HELL!)

both EBF

Both were breastfed by the way.

my daughter is 13 wks and only poops evert 2-3 days, my doc said to give her sugar in water, but health visitor said no to give her fresh orange juice or prune juice in water.
i found the sugar water worked best though!

Nearly every time he is fed! DS is 8 weeks and EBF. Probably at least 8 times a day.

Up until about 5 months, my DD went 6-8 times a day (occasionally 10 ) At 10 months she is now on 1-3 a day and there were even a few days last week where there was no poo at all so for those of you that have frequent pooers it does get better!!

Banana, its good to hear it slows down. might help her sleep better (wishful thinking!) it is funny how different they can be.

DD once went 16 days without pooing. HV was really good about it and didn't intervene - apparently very normal in BF babies. The result on day 17 was pretty awesome though!

every 3-4 days at about 4pm... I think she just uses every bit to grow as she was just over 10lb at birth and hasn't stopped feeding since. She is mainly BF. Its great, a pack of nappies lasts an age and she has never ever had a dirty nappy in the night-bliss!
