Why do baby diapers have poop in them?

Patient's question:

My baby is only three months old. Since birth, she has been exclusively breastfed. She has bowel movements many times a day, and basically, there is some poop on every diaper. I would like to ask what could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

My son was the same way in the first three months, but it's fine once he got older. He's now five months old and has bowel movements two or three times a day. As long as his stools are normal, it's okay. The child is threatened by diaper rash, so the family must take him to the hospital immediately for treatment to avoid various misunderstandings. Timely and symptomatic treatment is essential. For parents, it's important to give their child enough care and attention and to do everything possible to help him get timely treatment for his illness.
