Since the birth of the baby, mothers have spent most of their energy on the baby's "eating, drinking, and lazing", for fear that if they are not careful, the child will lose his temper.
In fact, the answer can be found from the baby's poop, which is a barometer of the baby's physical health, not only reflecting digestive problems, but also reflecting the discomfort of the body.
Frequency of baby pooping:
Breastfeeding babies have more frequent bowel movements, which are loose and unformed. Powdered milk babies are thicker and have slightly fewer bowel movements.
Some specific references are as follows:
Newborns: 2-8 times a day, usually with dark green meconium within four days.
Breastfeeding: 4-6 times a day, mostly golden pasty, with less frequent bowel movements after two months of age.
Formula feeding: 1-3 times a day, sometimes three to five days, occasionally strips are normal.
Mixed feeding: 1-4 times a day, between breast milk and formula feeding. 5. After adding complementary food: 1 time a day, the first addition of supplementary food is easy to cause constipation. It is recommended to give the baby touching and exhaust exercises every day to help intestinal peristalsis and pass poop.
