POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month2 months agoA. If your 18-day-old baby is passing stool more than 20 times a day, it may indicate an infection or a digestive issue, especially if the stool is very watery, greenish, or has a foul smell. Newborns can poop frequently, but excessive motions like this can lead to dehydration, which is dangerous at this age. It's important to monitor for signs such as sunken eyes, dry mouth, less urine, or drowsiness. Continue exclusive breastfeeding, as breast milk helps fight infection and keeps your baby hydrated. However, you should consult a pediatrician immediately to rule out any serious cause and start treatment if needed.
