is it normal for a full breastfeeding kid not making BM after 5 days?

my 35-day baby boy stop making BM right after getting one month old...He had very good BM before that. We waited up for 5 days and now there's only once today and that's all... is that normal? He eats & sleeps well but have stinky fart.....

Yes, it's quite normal. If he seems uncomfortable, there can be a few causes; constipating food that you consume? Is it hot where you are? Could it be dehydration? Is he getting enough foremilk? Sometimes swapping breasts when he is not quite done can help.

Anna is EBF and only poops about once a week. I can tell when there is one coming because her farts get pretty stinky the day before. Our doctor said it was perfectly normal and as long as she was wetting 4-6 diapers a day and seemed satisfied after nursing then she was fine.

My two went one week without from this age until 6 mths.

Oscar's record was 11days - and he was comfortable throughout. Emma's 9 days. Both records were during the 3 mth GS.

ds1 managed 12days with no poo! ds2 is more regular but still manages 4-5 days with nothing! i was always advised that as long as ur lo seems happy and comfortable not to worry.
