Any pee or poop that a baby passes in the womb generally goes into the amniotic fluid. Fetal urine plays an essential role in keeping amniotic fluid at healthy levels, which is necessary for the proper development of the lungs and the overall health of the baby.

The normal stool of a breastfed baby is yellow and loose (soft to runny) and may be seedy or curdy. After 4 – 6 weeks, some babies stool less frequently, with stools as infrequent as one every 7-10 days. As long as baby is gaining well, this is normal. Wet diapers: Expect 5-6+ wet diapers every 24 hours.

By 1 month of age, your baby will poop less, regardless of how he's fed. The number of stools for breastfed babies drops to about four per day; formula-fed babies may pass a stool two times a day or as infrequently as once every three or four days.

Solid Switches Once your baby starts eating solid food (usually between 4 and 6 months), her poop and her poop schedule will start to change. She'll go less frequently, and the stools themselves will become thicker in consistency.

This actually happens during pregnancy, is completely normal, and is usually necessary for your body to make room for a baby. Generally what happens is that after the baby is born, your stomach muscles gradually come back together.

Changes in the diet, hormonal variances, or your prenatal vitamin could lead to diarrhea. If you are nearing your due date, though, looser stools than usual may be a sign that labor is just around the corner. If your symptoms are mild, keep yourself hydrated and watch out for other early signs of labor.

A formula-fed baby's stools are yellow to brown in color and firmer (think thick pudding) than the stools of a breastfed baby. Formula-fed newborns also pass fewer -- but larger and smellier -- stools. By 1 month of age, your baby will poop less, regardless of how he's fed.

Some babies poo several times a day, and some poo only a few times a week. This is normal. Pooing is common during or shortly after feeding. This is called the gastro-colic reflex.

Unfortunately, some women experience it again as labour nears. You might also notice loose stools or diarrhea—all of your muscles start to loosen as you approach labour, and your rectum is one of them (though not every woman will experience this).

Baby's digestion Breast milk has a natural laxative effect so your baby is less likely to suffer from constipation. Their stools are mustard coloured, very soft and are sweeter smelling! Infant formula milk: is harder to digest so it sits in the stomach for longer. Babies are more prone to constipation.

What Happens When Babies Cry in the Womb? When a baby cries inside her mother's womb, it is indicative of well-developed coordination between her brain, her nervous system, and her body. Improved coordination is a sign that your baby's growth is adequate, and her responses to external stimuli are developing.

Why is my baby's poo green? As a newborn, your baby's first few nappies will often be a greenish-black colour and tar-like in texture. Despite seeming alarming, this is very normal and is medically referred to as meconium.

The majority of healthy full-term babies pass their first stool within 48 hours of being born, and most will have a meconium stool within 24 hours of birth. If your baby does not have a bowel movement or pass a meconium stool, it could be a sign that something is wrong.

Baby poop is, well, likely to be consumed at some point and probably not a problem beyond it being very gross. What to Do: Watch for diarrhea, vomiting, and fever, which could occur within 30 minutes to 4 hours of ingestion. If symptoms don't show up, give them some water and keep an eye out.

Meconium is the early stool passed by a newborn soon after birth, before the baby starts to feed and digest milk or formula. In some cases, the baby passes meconium while still inside the uterus. This can happen when babies are "under stress" due to a decrease in blood and oxygen supply.

For the first few days, when babies pass stool, the meconium is passed out of their body. Around day three to five, a baby's bowel movements turn to yellow, seedy stools. Babies should have their first meconium bowel movement within the first 24 hours of life. Some babies will pass their meconium in the delivery room.
