A decrease in a baby’s stool frequency at a certain age is within the normal range. Generally, stool frequency increases after the introduction of complementary foods. Some children may also experience constipation after three or four months. Observe your baby’s stool carefully. As long as the baby does not show signs of abdominal pain, restlessness, or crying, there is usually no major concern. If there is still no bowel movement after more than a week, it is advisable to go to the hospital for a thorough examination to rule out any abnormalities.
