How do you know if Baby's are pooping?

[irishmist]

I keep newspaper underneath the bedding so Iknow that they are peeing. It is had to see the poop becauseit is so tiny. I have noticed it on me when I have heldthem. Really where else would the do it lol? Arethe signs of a baby not going the same as an adult? Do I trust thelitter enough that they are stimulating each other to go. Isthere anything I can do to make sure this is happening?

I searched thru the forum looking for a topic on this, I found 25 pages on the subject of pooping but nothing about babies.

How old are the babies? If they areless than 2 weeks, the mother is stimulating them and is "cleaning" uptheir messes. If they are older, it is really difficult totell. I noticed that sometimes when I pick mine up, there wassome poop stuck on them. This is really the only way that Icould tell they were going.

They are 9 days old

That is what I figured, but because she spends so little time with them I just wanted to make sure

Thanks
