A. Stool pattern of small children changes from time to time. It can be more than 7 times per day also and sometimes the child will not pass stool for 10 days also. The most important thing is the consistency of the stool and if it is Semi solid to solid or semi liquid then there is no need to worry about the frequency as well as colour as well as the smell of the stool Also straining and cxrying while passing urine and stool is very normal. the crying of the child is due to colic pain and not due to constipation

A. hello breastfed baby will have less waste and can go without passing motion even for a week and if the babies not passing motion even after a week then it would be better to check with your doctor and she will be able to guide you accordingly and nothing to worry about
