Silas has gone from pooping once a day or once every other day.. to pooping 3 or 4 times a day..the last month he has been eating puree veggies and fruit and a tiny bit of water as well as breast milk..
is this healthy or is anyone else experiencing this? ...

Schelene, my son was pooping pretty much every single time we changed his diaper.. so well over 5 times a day. Now we're lucky if he poops every two days. I asked my doctor and they said that it's usual for them to go longer periods without pooping now, if they go for more than 4 days though, my doctor told me to bring him in. Hope this helps!

My baby girl (born May 9th) eats about the same as your boy. We use "Gripe Water" to help her system digest the new solids, it also helps with teething. Have you tried it? She loves the taste and really seems to help her.
It's a little expensive but def worth it!

My son used to poop every other day before starting soilids. He then started pooping every day and sometime twice. As long as the poo looks normal and isnt runny I wouldnt worry. With eating solids there is more to digest which means more to release. If your baby seems happy and their normal self Id just go with it. I sometimes wish my lil one would poo a little more because he always seems so happy after like the weight is gone from his tummy. So unless you notice a change in his behavior or runny poo and less wet diapers I wouldnt worry
