At a month old you will notice the stools change. Before one month baby should be going a few times a day, after one month of age a formula fed baby can go between every day to every 2-3 days, and a strictly breastfeed baby they may only go once every 6-7 days (just because breast milk is so well absorbed there isn't much waste) as long as baby is comfortable its perfectly fine.

I breast feed & formula feed but breast feed more. Thank you. I heard that as babies get older they tend to be more like us where they pee more than they poop.

I mostly breast feed, my baby is 8 weeks old and poops usually only one a day.  A couple times he didn't poop at all, but I've noticed it is usually between 4pm and 6pm when he poops.
