A. Passing motion in first 6 months of life is based on bowel movements in the tummy Solidification of milk happens slowly Check with your pediatrician about growth of your baby When to worry when baby is not passing motion - stomach distension, vomiting, excessive crying, not passing gas If not, we can wait We say if else is good baby may pass 10 motions in a day or once in 10 days
