Re: Poo much???

if she is breast fed then its ok for her to poo only every couple of days or so and because there poo ing only every few days and there fed 8-10 times daily there poos will be big but if shes still weeing and pooing then theres nothing to worry about if she doesnt poo for more than 2 days and her wee is less then tae he to her docs as that could be a bowel problem.

Re: Poo much???

I have 2 kids, my daughter from birth till around 6 months old would only poo once every 10 - 12 days,  doctors told me she was fine and it was normal, yet my son from day one would poo daily, I breastfed them both till 1 yr old. I would see a gp if you are concerned. :)

 If you feel this isn't right for your daughter....it might be better to have her checked out by  her doctor. Better to be safe than sorry and also putting your own mind at rest. 

I wish you well.

Cheers Janice

Re: Poo much???

Is she breast fed?? my son used to go without pooing for up to 7 or more days which is quite normal, I'm not sure about formula fed, my youngest was on formula and from what I remember he pooed often x

Re: Poo much???

my daughter also,wouldnt poop for over a week sometimes!! My Dr said that breast fed babies can go up to 2 weeks without pooping....so it depends if you are breast feeding or bottle....
