Hi. is it normal for my 3 week old son to be making a poo(not runny) 6x in one day? he also wets his nappies about 8x yesterday. his temperature is 36.8 and he is feeding well and he is on formula. he also seems to be hungry after making a poo.

Maybe: A breastfed baby may make a smear every feed or fill a diaper once a week. The variation is well known & normal. Formula babies usually go less but as long as the kid is feeding well/playful & otherwise normal I would not be concerned.
