What is wrong with my baby I need help

Question

My baby is only 7 week and she only poops once a week or twice a week wat is wrong

Answer

Common does not equal normal. Just because it’s common for a breastfed baby doesn’t mean it’s normal and good to not poop daily. How many wet diapers in a day? Consider reaching out to an IBCLC to make sure babe is getting enough in a feeding and to check for dysfunction/tension. A chiropractor can also be super helpful.

Answer

Breast milk contains everything the baby needs so the baby absorbs it almost entirely. This is why they rarely poop. It’s completely normal.

Answer

is she breastfed, because that can be normal!

Answer

That can be normal, but it’s always best to send a note on your version of MyChart to the baby’s pediatrician. You just want to be sure baby is gaining weight and on the right trajectory. Good luck!
