Dirty Nappies

Not sure if I’m over thinking it.. my little girl is 1 week old and she’s been doing 3/4 dirty nappies a day but today she has only done 1 and 7 wet nappies. Is this normal?

@Sandra thank you :)

Can be very normal and as above depends on their source of nutrition. My first LO would poop once every 10-15 days (ebf) from 0-4m consistently. My second pooped multiple times a day 😂 Babies good mama as long as she’s not uncomfortable, if she is you can try baths, gentle tummy massage in clockwise direction and bicycle legs ❤️

@Sharnee thank you, she’s on formula at the moment, I’ll give the massage a go and see if it helps, she does look a little bloated so might also try infacol on her next feed :)

Yeah this is normal, at my HV visit I asked her as we had gone from poos pretty much every nappy at first to then some days only once a day. She said they are still clearing all the Meconium at first and then get into a better rhythm as they get older x

Breastfed babies do have more poopy diapers compared to Formula fed babies so it really depends on what they eat. Which is all normal

As long as you’re getting lots of wet nappies a day that’s fine. My son does a dirty nappy every four days!
