Hi,
My Baby boy starts off with breast milk & formula milk after returning from hospital since birth. Used to poop daily which I believe it's their immature stomach couldn't handle as well.
But into 2month, baby boy starts to poop only every 3days.
After 2.5 months, baby starts to poop every 5-6 days interval.
Is this normal ? I am currently in the United States, the PD says is Oki .., but baby is giving out smelly gas yet the PD days ita ok.. PD even insert his finger into baby anus to check if any possible poops near the anus if baby has one.
PD gaves the reasoning that baby is digesting well thus no poop at all but .. he just didn't say much on the smelly gas.. Baby let out. HELP need any advise ?
In the Inited States, the PD don't advise us to feed water or juice at less than 6 months !! Regardless of breast milk or formula milk as they are already water content.
But if we insist on feeding water , PD advises us only 1 ounce (30ml) twice per day ( day one/night one ).
But PD advises strictly no juice at less than 6 months.
Currently baby is 3 months only poop after 5-7 days once.
Poop is solid paste initially then slightly pasty water like soft.
PD still says its normal !!!
This is while thing normal ??
I'm Asian too .. our patents or grandparents would say baby need to poop daily then is healthy.
Is my baby healthy ?
Baby seems happy daily but when we try to feed him he will kick his legs and cried easily especially after the 3 -4 days of no poop onwards.
Please advice .
Thank you
