Aloha Kathy,

I tell moms that starting about 6 weeks of age many babies do not stool
as often as the 2-5 stools per day in earlier weeks that were to be
expected.  Some may stool once every two-three days or once a week.  This
is in the realm of normal for breastfed babies.

For all three of my children, starting at 6 weeks, they would only stool
once a week.  That one day a week I refered to as their pooping day as
that is all they did!  It seemed that once they weaned from the breast
their norm came to be once a day thereafter.


Aloha,
