The number of stools for newborns depends on the child, usually breastfed children may have more stools than artificially fed children. Breastfed children will have 3-4 stools, some may have 2-3 stools, about 2-3 stools should be more normal. If the number of stools is excessive or significantly higher than usual, watch out for diarrhea. In artificially fed children, the ratio of calcium and phosphorus in milk may be different from that in breast milk, so the stools are relatively dry. For artificially fed children, it is usually 1-2 times. Therefore, the number of bowel movements depends on each child’s specific situation. Some children may have physiological reasons for an increase in the number of stools, but if the child is generally well, with good mental response, growth, weight gain, and appetite, this may also be physiological diarrhea.
