Poop of a baby who drinks breast milk?
⚡ Short answer: A breastfed baby's poop changes from dark meconium in the first weeks to mustard yellow, liquid, and grainy consistency; frequency varies from baby to baby, but if there's no blood, mucus, or white color, generally you don't need to worry.

Your curiosity about how breastfed babies' poop changes is normal — many parents wonder about this over months. The dark, tarry meconium in the first weeks gradually turns to mustard yellow, sometimes greenish, grainy, and liquid in consistency. This liquid consistency is not intestinal upset but a natural result of breast milk's composition. As baby grows, frequency also changes: very frequent in newborns (can happen with every feeding), then from 2–3 months it can drop to once a day or even once a week in some babies. Once solids start, it gets thicker. Just know: if there's no mucus, blood, or white-colored poop, and baby isn't in distress, each color tone is usually normal. If you see mucus in poop, fever, vomiting, or baby isn't gaining weight, consult your pediatrician.
