Passing stools so many times

My daughter is 6 days old and had a mild jaundice which is fine now. She is passing stools 5-6 times a day. Is that okay? Anything to worry about?

Shouldn't be an issue :) Also, if she's fully breastfed, she could also have periods where she don't poop for up to 14 days! Just a heads up haha :)

I tink it’s normal. Especially in the first few days and if u breastfeed her. But do consult doctor if you are worried or see anything special.

yeap, totally normal! if you're really concern, can just let the doc know during the next check up.

It is normal. Generally happens because of the medicines for jaundice. Still can check with a Doc.

I think it’s normal but if you’re worried, please bring your baby to your family doctor

It is normal. If concerned, you can share this with the doctor during her next follow up.
