Bowel movement: As long as you baby has wet diapers dont worry. If you are breastfeeding, your baby can hace a movement with each feeding, once a day or go a week without having one. All very normal . And the stool may be on the watery side. If you are bottle feeding and your baby is not uncomfortable i would not be concerned.

Relax: Breast babies can do a little smear every feed or a diaper filler every 7-10 days. Breast milk is a well designed food source compared to formula, where more debris is left over after processing. Bottle babies usually go at least daily if not more often. If it is soft when they go it is considered okay, even if delayed.
