The stooling pattern also changes:
Day 3: Meconium should no longer appear in the stool and bowel movements should begin to appear yellow.
Day 6 or 7: Most newborns have 3-4 stools per day, although many infants pass stool with every feeding.
Stool passed by breastfed infants has little odor. You should be concerned if an infant's stool gradually loses color and becomes "acholic," as this may be a sign of biliary atresia.
