He should have at least six wet diapers and three dirty diapers. The yellow, seedy stool is normal and since you're breastfeeding he will have more frequent bowel movements in the beginning. After a month or two it may taper off an he could go days without having one.

Is it yellow seedy like? Its normal especially that little his little digestive tract is getting use to the formula and breastmilk. n breastfeed babys can have a bowel movement after each feeding.. Also when u do change him hold his lil legs close to his chest he might not be done and when u change him he goes again. i know it like whoa i just changed ya n ur going again lol. you blow thru dipers like crazy wen there first born i had many incidents in the middle of changing my LO he'd b pushing more out lol
