If you’re a first-time parent, the idea of looking up facts about baby poop may seem a little off-putting. Don’t worry. That’ll pass. For the first few weeks of your newborn’s life, you’ll be all about your new addition’s feeding, sleeping and pooping schedules. With that in mind, this guide to the potential contents of your little one’s diaper may help answer some questions that may arise as you get to know your new baby during their first year.
Parents worry about their children from the moment they’re born. They worry about their diet, whether they’re getting enough sleep, how they’re doing in school, and whether they’re raising a well-rounded individual.
When your newborn arrives, you can almost certainly count on a few things: crying, sleeping, eating, and pooping. Your little bundle of joy will be presenting you with their own bundles of joy several times a day, ranging in color and texture based on their age and digestive maturity. While some bowel movements may appear a little stranger than others (especially when they’re green) they usually aren’t cause for alarm.
New parents may often feel helpless when their little one is gassy. It may be helpful to understand what some of the causes of your baby’s fussiness may be, so that you can help them feel more comfortable.
The sound of a baby crying in the middle of the night can rouse even the sleepiest parent. But when these cries differ from the standard “I’m hungry” or “I need a new diaper” cry, it can be easy for panic to set in, especially when the cries are accompanied by an arched back. Learn why this may be happening and what you can do about it.
When your baby is born, they may have some developing to do in their digestive tract. Some babies are born with an immature digestive system, also known as infant gut immaturity. Learn what this means and how you can help ensure your little one gets the nutritional support they need.
