A member asked:
My 3 month old baby girl defecates on 4-7days interval, is it normal? wat should i do so that she wil be able to defecate daily? im on mixed feeding.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mixed feeding: By mixed feeding i presume you are both breast and bottle feeding. A peculiarity of breast fed babies is that they can go as long as a week without having a stool and it considered normal . Look on it as ablessing since you have fewer dirty diapers to change.
