When we are new parents, everything is a concern for us. Even, how many times should the baby get a dirty diaper?

There is a broad range of the normal number of dirty diapers for a day, especially with breastfed babies. Bottle-fed babies tend to be more regular.

The number of dirty diapers also will change over time, for example, newborns might have a small bowel movement every time he nurses.

Sometimes we became worried because we think our baby is constipated because she strains, grunts, and turns red, but that’s typical even with a normal, soft bowel movement.

But, if you are worried because you think your baby needs too many diapers or few diapers, the best thing you can do is check with your doctor.
