How much poop is too much?
Perhaps I should be asking our pediatrician, but I thought I'd throw this out to the group. How much poop is too much? Our 10-month-old pooped four times at daycare today. Three times on most days. Our caregiver said that his poop is not too runny and not too hard... But just that it seems to happen often. Haven't weighed or quantified the volume of his poop (I'm hoping not to do that), so I don't know the average amount of poop per time (just trying to anticipate questions!).
I certainly don't poop three or four times a day myself, but I'm not a 10-month-old. Should I be concerned about this?

Three or four a day doesn't sound too scary to me. Certainly our 16 month old will have days where he has 4 or 5 poopy diapers.
Watch out for lots of poopy diapers though. Our (now) 3.5 year old would have 15-20 poopy diapers in a day and it turned out he was lactose intolerant and very sick.
