Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Normal: There are a few things that newborns do very well and pooping is one of them. This is especially true if you are breastfeeding. It is completely normal for a 7 day old to poop after every feeding. No need to be worried, just enjoy the baby.

Expected pooping: Breast fed kids may go a little every feed or one bulky stool every 7-10 days,
