How often should a newborn poop?

Anywhere from like 5 times a day to once a week in my experience with 4 kids :)

ANSWER It varies from baby to baby. Some newborns have a bowel movement after every feeding (especially breastfed babies), some newborns go every other day or every few days. As long as your baby doesn't seem to be constipated (bloated belly, crying, straining, etc.) then there is no need for concern. Best of luck!

Will having low iron while pregnant affect the baby?

You shouldn't let your iron levels decrease more than your normal level of iron -- in other words, consume the same amount of iron as you did when you weren't pregnant, or more. Iron is needed because your body is producing a lot of extra blood to bring oxygen and nutrients to the placenta, which is what feeds the baby. So make an effort to consume more iron -- it will be better for the baby!!

Is it possible for siblings to be born a couple of days apart?

It is rare for normal labor to exceed 24 hours between delivery of multiple babies. This is because at birth, the mother's body undergoes changes that would make it difficult for any babies to continue relying on the placenta and umbilical cord.

However, when very premature births occur, it may be possible to have prolonged durations. In 2013, a mother in Ireland gave birth at 23 weeks to one fraternal twin, but the other remained in the womb for another 87 days, with labor induced at week 36. One twin daughter was born on June 1, 2012, the other on August 27, and both survived. The first, however, defied high odds against survival and spent the intervening three months in an incubator.

What is Baby Moses Syndrome?

I found this: " The Moses syndrome should not be confused with the baby Moses syndrome (the hope-in-a-basketfallacy), a kind of defense mechanism whereby one deceives oneself into inaction by the wishful thought that somebody else will eventually come along to solve your problems for you and save you from disaster."

If a boy and girl have a baby at 16 and the girl keeps the baby from the boy and then asked for Child support would this child support come from the boy's mother since she is the only parent?

The biological parents pay for their child, not the grandparents. Both of you needs to get jobs and should have done so before the child arrived. When you petition the court for child support the father have establish paternity so they know he is the biological father. He can also petition for visitation and custody since being the biological father, that is his right. Just as it is the child's right to both parents. You can not choose that the father will have no contact with his child. That is up to the court. He has rights just like you. And so does your child.
