My three-month old is exclusively breastfed. She always pooped once every three days, then she started going every two days or so. But this last week she has gone four or five days without a BM.…Continue

Daughter will be 13 months old when she becomes a big sister
Hi everyone. I am a new mom I have a beautiful 5 1/2 month old daughter. I just found out on April 10 that I am pregnant again. I was not overly excited. I actually cried for days because I did not want to be. I have wanted to spend time with my daughter and let her be a kid before having another child but that is not an option now. I am hoping my daughter doesn't feel slighted when this child comes along. Any advice would be great. Thanks.See More

"I breastfed 3 of my children exclusively, and still had babies w/ constipation. I don't think there's a perfect list of how breastfed and bottlefed babies will be. When my babies would get constipated, I'd just figure I…"
Rose Mason replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"newmom1 - I completely agree with Jen. My daughter did the exact same thing. She went from having a BM one to three times a day to once every 7 to 10 days when she hit two months old. Scared the beejeezus out of me! I was…"
Val Wiggins replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"I had the same thing happen... Just keep on nursing. Digestion evolves as the baby gets older. You'll notice differences in stool at the 3 months mark, 6 month mark, and the 1 year mark. It could be that baby is requiring more food…"
muffetjane replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"It's very rare for breastfed babies to be constipated. Constipated means their poos are hard and difficult to move. It's more likely your baby is growing and changing and may need to "hold on" to that food a little longer. Watch…"

"Also, not having a BM doesn't mean your baby is constipated. Hard poops (at this stage) would indicate constipation."
MamaD2011 replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"I just went through this with my 3.5 month old. She normallly goes every day, but went 3 days without a BM. I called her pediatrician at the 2 day mark because it was so unusual. I was told that it is not abnormal for babies who are exclusively…"
Shannon, Star Mom replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"While it may be uncommon for the constipation in breastfed babies related directly to the breastmilk, it is common for there to be bowel problems (in all young babies) b/c the way their bodies breakdown their intake is still maturing. Either…"
lareli replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"I am sorry, but as much as people want to think. Breastmilk is way different than formula. Breastfed babies that are exclusively breastgfeeding do not get constipated. It is normal for them to skip stools, and they can start skipping stools around…"
Shannon, Star Mom replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"My Dr. said if it's been more than 3 days to use the childrens glycerine suppositories. So, Dr. said to cut them in 1/2 since they are generally for 2+. Within the hour my son always went after inserting it. I…"
lareli replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"As long as your baby keeps exclusively breastfeeding is consider normal. Is your baby actinf fussy? Or when the baby has a bowel movement is it hard or soft?"
Erika, Star Mom replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"It doesn't sound normal to me, or maybe my son was abnormal. He pooped a little bit every few hours when he was a newborn, even at 3 months, and now, is pooping a few times a day. Especially with breastfeeding they usually poop more. I would…"
Dawn C replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"I would ask the doctor. i just started watching a little girl who was allergic to her mom's breast milk and was getting too constipated with it so they had to change her to soy milk. Also, your doctor may have a different opinion on…"
lv4boyz1girl replied to newmom1's discussion Dirty diapers
"My daughter is 12 weeks and I mainly breastfeed, but just introduced her to formula 3 weeks ago once a day, because I do not produce enough to pump more than 2 oz. She also went from more than 2 or 3 BM's a day to once every 5-6…"
