Question
Is it normal for a four-month-old baby to have a bowel movement every three days?
Answer
As long as your baby’s stool is not dry, it falls within the normal range. If your baby’s stool becomes dry, you should pay attention to the following points. Make sure your baby drinks enough water regularly to prevent constipation. It is recommended to give your baby more water, fruit puree, and vegetable puree, gently massage your baby’s abdomen, wipe the buttocks with warm water to promote intestinal peristalsis and metabolism. In addition, consider giving your baby probiotics and lactase preparations to regulate and promote intestinal health.
