My son has problems pooping and during a good week either goes once a day or every other day. Is this not enough? I can't imagine him pooping that much. Every once and a while after he's been constipated for a while he will 2-3 times, but not regularly.

My breastfed baby went once every 3 or 4 days, which was perfectly normal for her. Once she started solids she started going once every other day perhaps, and now that she's 2yrs old she usually goes once a day. Compare adults, we don't all go the same frequency either... it's not constipation unless it's difficult to pass when he does go. Frequency (i.e. Not often) is not an indicator.

Sure, some normal baies poop 3 times a day. Some normal babies poop 8 times a day. Some normal babies poop once a day. Some normal babies poop once a week.
There's a wide range of normal.

My daughter never goes 2-3 times a day. Her normal is usually one but every once in a while 2 times. Every baby is different though.

Normal magazines tend to generalize.
My baby poops 3 times a week and she's pretty normal.

I'd like to know what they are feeding these normal babies! I have just started introducing solids to my 4 1/2 month old and he still only poos once a day to every other day.
Normal is a cycle on a washing machine.

no way...they poop that and more for the first few months, but around 4 to 12 months, they usually poop once a day, maybe twice. as they get bigger, their digestive track matures and gets bigger and can hold more. it's not even uncommon for kids to go every other day or every few days when their younger. unless your overfeeding your kids, once a day or every other day is normal.

At LEAST! I've CHANGED some babies who went more often than THAT- so consider yourself lucky (& if he's old enough, give him alittle Orange Juice in a bottle for his Constipation).

that seems like a lot, none of my kids have pooped that much aside from when they were first born.
