Is it normal for the baby to have a bowel movement two days?

Patient's question:

A 50-day-old baby has been having bowel movements twice every two days for the past five days, whereas before, he had them four to five times a day. He usually sleeps from 10:30 to 11:00 PM and stays asleep until 5:00 AM. Is it normal for him to be eating and drinking milk normally, but urinating and passing gas normally as well?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, normal bowel movements are once a day or every other day. If there are no issues, you can focus on careful observation. If the stool is loose, it is recommended to consult a pediatric department in a regular private traditional Chinese medicine hospital for a follow-up visit. I hope my advice is helpful to you.
