Baby Sleep Guide | Routines, Tips & Safe Sleep

Hello New Moms,

Your beautiful beginning has just begun. It feels unbelievable to hold your baby, doesn’t it?

There’s nothing more satisfying than watching your baby grow right in front of your eyes, while your baby cannot speak right now, there’s a lot they it can tell you through their poop.

Yes, your baby’s poop holds the secrets to their health.

Let's dive right in.

The colour, texture, and frequency of your baby’s poop can give you some pretty important clues about their health.

Yellow or mustard? That means healthy digestion. 
Green poop? Could be a feeding issue. Brown or orange poop is usually fine.

Now let’s talk about some important red flags.

White poop? Red poop? Pale or Clay coloured poop? These colours are signs to see your doctor right away.

Moms, you must keep a tight watch and look for signs like straining, hard stools, diarrhoea and less frequent pooping. Keep your baby hydrated and consult your paediatrician if needed.

You don’t need to worry about potty training just yet. Most babies take up to 18 months and 2 years. Look out for signs of readiness, and remember: every child gets there in their own time.

For any questions or doubts, Apollo doctors and our supportive community are always here for you.
