Dear XXXX
Every baby has their won stool frequency and timing. There is definitely no cause for concern.
Some babies pass stools once in 2-3 days. some pass stools 2-6 times a day. Its all normal.
If the baby is accepting feeds well, there is no distension of abdomen and weight gain is adequate then there is no cause for concern.
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
