Infrequent Stools: Formula fed newborns can have slower stool transit. They can have a bm 3-4/day to 1 every 2-3 days. You can try stomach massage and bicycle legs to help with the transit time. Seek in person Med attention if stools are bloody or tarry, decreased wet diapers, feeding intolerance, or green vomit.
