Question 5

how many times a day should a 1 month old poop?

Depends on situation: If baby is breast fed they may stool a little smear every feeding or one big crib full once a week. Breast milk is so well digested that it may not leave much behind for poo. If it is soft, the frequency of stooling is not important.Formula babies usually end up with a daily or twice daily pattern.

Accepted Answer

"Normal" bowels: "normal" frequency ranges (in a bell-curve distribution) from three movements daily to one every three to four days.  The amount, color, frequency of stool varies with foods, speed of emptying of the GI tract, medications & supplements ingested, gut flora (unique for each individual), additives (like blood), subtractions (like absent bile), infection, inflammation, & other factors.

Question 7

how's many times a day should i be using the bathroom as in pooping, and  can that be one of the reasons why i'm so bloated?

Constipation: The normal bowel frequency in general is from 3 times a day to 3 times a week. When one has difficulty with either each movement or frequency, it is a condition most would define as constipation.

Question 8

toddler pooping 3 times a day, should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Not really: Most likely related to diet. Lots of fruits, especially fruits that begin with a "p" will make you poop. Too much juice will also make us poop frequently as can food allergies- two most prominent being dairy and gluten. Your child sounds normal to me.

Question 9

how many times a day are you mant to poop

Accepted Answer

Poop: Everyone's digestive system is a bit different but generally speaking most people have a daily bowel movement.  Healthy bowel movements should not be hard or difficult to come out.  Drinking plenty of water and fiber and vegetables should help.

Depends on situation: A newborn must first pass the dark sticky meconium stool ; this starts day one or is abnormal.Once it clears, if baby is breast fed they may stool a little smear every feeding or one big crib full once a week. Breast milk is so well digested that it may not leave much behind for poo. If it is soft, the frequency of stooling is not important.Formula babies go more often.
