Got a call today from a nurse at a peds office who wanted to know what sort
of poopy diaper count they should be looking for in a baby who is partially
breastfed.........not sure I know the correct answer to that question
>>>>>>>>
Ann, I don't know either, but I'm glad they called an LC/you for advice.
My response to the ped office nurse might include: how old is baby?
.....what color are BMs? ....... if the baby looks good/general assessment is good,
is happy, and gaining wt appropriately, then however many BMs the baby is
having is likely aok.
<<<< She also asked me whether it is still considered normal for a
breastfed three month old to go for a few days without stooling and I said that it is
all other assessments aok in exclusively Bf baby: agree.
