A. Some babies pass stools once in four or five days while some pass even more than five times a day which are perfectly normal in breastfed babies. Touch and feel the baby's tummy. If it's hard or the baby is cranky or crying more than usual then u should consult with ur pediatrician. If not u can wait upto seven days. Regarding gas, Lay the baby on the back and pedal her legs if in case there was any gas it will be released smoothly. Apply a paste of Hing mixed with water around the baby's navel area gently. All these will help to release the gas without much pain.
