Is this normal??

So Cardston only poops like once a week. Sometimes it's longer. His last stretch was 9 days! Today was the lucky day. Is that normal?? It's horrible...when he does go...it's always a blowout!! Brampton did the same thing when he was little. But it still seems a little odd to me.

I think that is normal (for some kids) but I would just call the doctor. Hope you had a good Labor Day Weekend!!

As long as he's not in any pain, sounds normal, especially after they're a month old or so (lots of kids will go longer stretches after they hit the one-month mark).

Oh, that comment was from me (Serena), lol.

I'm glad you got moved in! I'll be excited to see pics of your new place. The pics of the kiddos were very cute. They look like the best of buds already! And don't stress the poop thing too much! Call the doctor if you're in doubt, but I think it can be normal. ;)

Gaven did the same thing, he had a 10 day stretch. They told me as long as it isn't hard or hard pellets coming out, they're fine. Just make sure it's still squishy in consistency. Okay, that sounds gross, but you know what I mean.

It is ok for breastfeed babies to go a few days (b/c the milk is so pure). But I would ask the dr. b/c I dont think he should longer than 5 days. Also, it could be linked with his reflux. and as long as it is not hard.
