Question
My baby has bowel movements three to four times a day, what should I do?
Answer
At two weeks old, if the baby has bowel movements three to four times a day and is drinking milk and sleeping deeply normally, this is a normal phenomenon. There is no need to worry excessively. Since the baby is currently in a peak growth and development phase, with a fast metabolism, normal breastfeeding can result in 4-6 bowel movements a day.
