A. For a 14-day-old baby, passing hard stools is not considered a good indication and can be a sign of constipation. Newborns typically pass soft, mushy stools, and hard stools may indicate that your baby is not getting enough fluids or may be experiencing digestive issues. It's important to monitor your baby's feeding patterns; if you're breastfeeding, ensure they are latching well and feeding frequently, as breast milk is usually easily digestible. If your baby is formula-fed, make sure you're using the appropriate formula for their age. If hard stools persist, or if your baby seems uncomfortable, is straining, or has not passed stools for a couple of days, it's best to consult your pediatrician for advice and possible interventions. They can provide guidance on how to ensure your baby's digestive health is on track.
