POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy10 months agoA. It’s common for babies, especially those around the age of 9 months, to have a bowel movement after every meal. This pattern can be due to several factors, including the baby's diet, the digestive system's response to food, and their overall health. Many babies have a reflex known as the "gastrocolic reflex," which triggers a bowel movement after eating. As long as the consistency of the stool is normal (not too watery or hard) and your baby is not showing any signs of discomfort or distress, this pattern is generally considered normal. However, if you notice any concerning symptoms, such as persistent diarrhea, constipation, blood in the stool, or signs of discomfort during bowel movements, it’s advisable to consult your pediatrician for further evaluation and guidance.
