My baby girl is just a week old, she poops everytime she passes gas. She pooped 8-9 times in last 24 hours (some of them right after feed) with 3 to 4 of them being normal quantity poops. Is this something to worry? Also, she takes b.feed (5-10 min session) multiple times in a span of 2-3 hours and sleeps for 3-4 hours continuously, is that causing the trouble? Please advise

A. if baby is an exclusive mothers milk then passing stool 5 to 7 times in a day is nothing much to be worried about just make sure of maintaining good hygiene to prevent the risk of infections
