    Dirty Nappies

    General Question... when do babies being breastfed stop dirtying their nappies every change? My DS is only 8 weeks?? Just wondering?

    I think it varies depending on the baby, but 8 weeks sounds normal to me. When my bub turned 3 months old he started pooing only every 4-5 DAYS!

    I say enjoy using less baby wipes lol!

    At about 10 weeks or so Thomas starting pooing a lot less often. Sometimes he would go 3-4 days and then do a whopper! He went a week until he did one as well. Apparently breastfed babies can sometimes go 2 wks without doing one!
