What's getting your baby constipated
As new parents, you might be surprised at how much you think, talk, and worry about poop. When a baby is pooping regularly, it usually means that all her pipes are in working order and that she's getting enough to eat and disposing of the rest. So it's understandable that the absence of -- or noticeable change in consistency in -- poop can stress parents out. And because food is largely to blame when it comes to constipation, let's take a closer look at your baby's diet

The Just-Liquid Months
For starters, constipation in newborns is fairly uncommon. Babies are on an all-liquid diet, so their food is more easily absorbed and digested, says Jennifer Shu, M.D., an Atlanta-based pediatrician and coauthor of Food Fights: Winning The Nutritional Challenges of Parenthood Armed with Insight, Humor, and A Bottle of Ketchup. On average, babies 0 to 4 months old poop 3 to 4 times a day. But rather than frequency, the most important thing to watch for is that it's soft. If an infant's poop is hard, that's a sign that it's staying in there longer than we want it to be, Dr. Shu says.
Breastfed babies can be all over the map when it comes to their poop schedule, making it even easier to think constipation is to blame. Some infants will poop after every feeding; others can go several days before releasing their bowels. These long stretches can be attributed to how easy it is for babies to digest breast milk. The ability of a baby's gut to absorb breast milk is amazing, says Jane Morton, M.D., a clinical professor of pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine, so babies may not poop that much. But if you suspect that your baby might be constipated, take a look at Mom's diet, as everything Mom eats gets passed to baby.
Constipation in breastfed infants could be a symptom of a milk-protein allergy, says Diana Lerner, M.D., instructor of pediatrics and pediatric gastroenterology fellow at the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. So sometimes I would suggest that a mom who is breastfeeding take dairy out of her diet (consider substituting soy products for dairy). And on the other end of the spectrum, what you eat could also ease your baby's constipation. If baby is constipated, Dr. Shu recommends that the mother eat some prunes to see if that helps.
Exclusively formula-fed babies are much more likely to have constipation troubles, Dr. Morton says. Some of the ingredients in formula might be more challenging to a baby's digestive system and result in much firmer poops. Constipation may also be Kcaused by a milk-protein allergy or intolerance. Once it is diagnosed, your pediatrician may switch your baby's formula to one that isn't milk-based, but parents should consult their pediatrician before making a formula change. Parents might also be tempted to switch to a low-iron formula if they suspect their baby is constipated, Dr. Shu says. But babies need this iron, and although foods high in iron can cause constipation, the amount found in formula isn't to blame.
Hello!
kyemenbabyonline.com, I appreciate the care you put into this space—it really shows.
I recently published my ebooks and training videos on
https://www.hotelreceptionisttraining.com/
They feel like a hidden gem for anyone interested in hospitality management and tourism. These ebooks and videos have already been welcomed and found very useful by students in Russia, the USA, France, the UK, Australia, Spain, and Vietnam—helping learners and professionals strengthen their real hotel reception skills. I believe visitors and readers here might also find them practical and inspiring.
Unlike many resources that stay only on theory, this ebook and training video set is closely connected to today’s hotel business. It comes with full step-by-step training videos that guide learners through real front desk guest service situations—showing exactly how to welcome, assist, and serve hotel guests in a professional way. That’s what makes these materials special: they combine academic knowledge with real practice.
With respect to the owners of kyemenbabyonline.com who keep this platform alive, I kindly ask to share this small contribution. For readers and visitors, these skills and interview tips can truly help anyone interested in becoming a hotel receptionist prepare with confidence and secure a good job at hotels and resorts worldwide. If found suitable, I’d be grateful for it to remain here so it can reach those who need it.
Why These Ebooks and Training Videos Are Special
They uniquely combine academic pathways such as a bachelor’s degree in hospitality management or a advanced hotel management course with very practical guidance on the duties of a front desk agent. They also cover the hotel front desk job description, and detailed hotel front desk tasks.
The materials go further by explaining the reservation systems in hotels, check-in and check-out procedures, guest relations, and practical guest service recovery—covering nearly every situation that arises in the daily business of a front office operation.
Beyond theory, my ebooks and training videos connect the academic side of hospitality management studies with the real-life practice of hotel front desk duties and responsibilities.
- For students and readers: they bridge classroom study with career preparation, showing how hotel management certificate programs link directly to front desk skills.
- For professionals and community visitors: they support career growth through questions for reception interview, with step-by-step questions to ask a receptionist in an interview. There’s also guidance on writing a strong receptionist description for resume.
As someone who has taught resort management for nearly 30 years, I rarely see materials that balance the academic foundation with the day-to-day hotel front desk job responsibilities so effectively. This training not only teaches but also simulates real hotel reception challenges—making it as close to on-the-job learning as possible, while still providing structured guidance.
I hope the owners of kyemenbabyonline.com, and the readers/visitors of kyemenbabyonline.com, will support my ebooks and training videos so more people can access the information and gain the essential skills needed to become a professional hotel receptionist in any hotel or resort worldwide.
Thanks again for all the work you do here.
