If a one month old baby at home has been pulling wet poop all the time and suddenly discovers that it has been pulled dry poop one day, parents cannot help but feel uneasy, not knowing whether this is a normal condition or if the baby's body is experiencing poor symptoms. So, is it normal for a one month old baby to pull dry poop?
It is abnormal for a one month old baby to pull out dry rice cakes, which may be related to the baby's feeding and physical condition. If a baby eats formula instead of breast milk, they may have dry stools. At the same time, if water is not replenished in a timely manner or if digestion is poor, dry stool may also appear. Therefore, parents can try feeding their babies water, fruit and vegetable juices, and observe whether their stool is normal afterwards.
A one month old baby's food is breast milk, and the stool pulled out is normally thin and soft, presenting a golden yellow color. Most babies fed formula milk have light yellow stool that is not formed. Only after the baby starts to come into contact with complementary foods can the stool form a shape, and the baby's stool also reflects their physical condition.
A one month old baby's stool should be about three or four times a day. If the frequency is too high and the stool is thin and egg shaped, it may be diarrhea. In addition, if the color of a baby's stool changes from normal golden yellow to green, it may be because the baby has not eaten enough. Parents can judge based on these experiences.
