Question

My baby is three years old, has a good appetite, doesn’t be picky, and eats by himself. However, he has many bowel movements every day, almost once after each meal. Is this normal?

Answer

One to two bowel movements a day is normal. If the bowel movements are more frequent and the consistency is yellow or has a light green mucous or loose texture, it may be a sign of indigestion. It is recommended to give the baby some foods that help digestion or supplement probiotics to adjust the intestinal flora. Wishing the baby healthy growth!
