A. It is quite common for babies to poop multiple times a day, especially after meals. Many infants have an active digestive system, and their reflex to pass stool becomes stronger right after eating. If your baby boy is passing stool four times a day, and the poop is soft (not watery), and he is feeding well, gaining weight, and remaining active, it is usually considered normal. Breastfed babies, in particular, may poop more frequently because breast milk is easily digested. However, if the stool is very watery, foul-smelling, contains mucus or blood, or if your baby seems uncomfortable, dehydrated, or is not feeding well, then it’s best to consult a pediatrician. Frequent pooping alone is not a problem unless there are other concerning symptoms. You’re doing the right thing by observing his patterns closely.

A. Your child could be suffering with digestion related issues which is why your child is pooping immediately after eating and actually pampers the growth and weight of your child as well so in the current situation it is going to be good for you to consult your doctor once
