Just curious: how often does your EBF baby poop?

Question

I'm just curious. Of my twins who are EBF (3 months old), one poops weekly and the other poops every couple weeks. Our pediatrician said it's totally normal (since they have a normal amount of wet diapers and normal poop when they do poop) so I'm not worried, but my friends' and sister's babies who are also EBF all poop basically every day! Mine also are jumping up the growth curve like crazy (little chunky monkeys) so I guess they just utilize mama's milk really well and digest it super easily. No complaints! 💩 I know once they start solids in a few months it'll be a whole different story!

Answer

All babies are so different. My son typically pooped daily, usually a couple poops per day. He did have times where we went a couple days between poops though 🤷‍♀️

Answer

At this age my lo was going about every 5-7 days.

Answer

Answer

For the first 3 weeks once the meconium had passed my youngest pooped 3 times. In week 4 she was given a day's worth of Pumped milk as I was away from her and has been pooping almost every feeding sense. The other night poor kid pooped in the middle of the night and when my husband went to change her in the morning her little bottom was bright cherry-red I felt terrible. It all varies they do what they want
