    Dear shanti,

    I am a mother of a 1 year old toddler and when my baby was at your baby's age i remember she used to pass stool in a day for 3 -4 times and she never had any bowl problem . It is infact important to young infants to pass motion in a day or two otherwise there might be some stomach problem . My advice is please visit your pedetrician as early as possible or call him/her and let him know about it... young infants are very delicate and we need to ensure to constantly seek advice from pedetrician at earliest.

    Thanks,

    Hi, Whilst it is a good idea to see the doctor, it is normal for some babies to poop even once in 5 days. If this was always the case, i would say yours is one of those. If its a recent development and happened only once or twice, wait to see if it gets ok on its own and then see the doctor.
