Question
A 5-month-old baby has been experiencing bowel movements every four to five days since three months ago. What could be the cause of this? The first three bowel movements were golden yellow and there was no abdominal pain, the baby’s mood was good, the diet was normal, and there were also normal farts.
Answer
