A member asked:
I take high fibre but drink little water. can the diet of breastfeeding mothers cause their infants to constipated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Breast fed babies: No, breast fed babies can have a stool with each feeding, once a day or can go as long as a week without stooling. This is all very normal for breast fed babies. In fact their stool is usually on the watery side.
