How long is the normal interval between two bowel movements for a three-month-old baby?

Patient's question:

In recent days, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. Could you please tell me how long is considered normal for the interval between two bowel movements for a three-month-old baby?

Doctor's answer:

The child's bowel movements are usually 1-2 times a day, which is normal and nothing to worry about. It is important to promptly address the child's symptoms. If there are symptoms of constipation, it is recommended to take a moderate amount of honey orally for treatment.
There are many factors that can cause endocrine diseases in children. If the child is diagnosed with an endocrine disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, including supporting gastrointestinal decompression, and developing good hygiene habits. The child should maintain a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
