How many messy diapers?

[nikkicole827]

My daughter is 3 weeks old as of today and is only messing about one diaper a day.  In fact, I havent seen one out of her today/tonight yet.  Her last was late last night.  Is this normal?  She has had many many wet diapers, just no bowel movement in a while.

My son only gave us one poopy diaper every couple of days for a very long stretch.  It only changed when he finally started having some vegetables at age 6 months.  As long as he was not acting uncomfortable, the pedi said not to worry about it.

My dd pooped about 5 times a day, but my SIL dd only once a week (both while being BF).  It differs from baby to baby, but they say not to worry until about day 10.

Nikki are you breastfeeding?  That will make it different.

I know with Nadezdha... every diaper has at the very least a skidmark of poo where as there are 3-5 dirty bowel movement diapers a day and TONS of wet diapers.
