Question

Is it normal for a 3-month-old baby to defecate only once every other day?

Answer

A 3-month-old baby who defecates only once every other day may be perfectly normal, as each baby’s bowel habits can vary. However, if the baby shows no other signs of distress in areas such as diet and growth, there’s no need to worry. If you’re concerned about the baby’s defecation frequency or notice any discomfort symptoms, it’s advisable to consult a doctor.
