baby can pass stool in different consistency and frequency... IF baby is exclusively breast feed than nothing to worry.. sometime top feed baby have hard stool .. this will settle down with time... focus more on breast feed.

It could be due to dehydration as mother may be lactating less milk or due to the formula milk (if the baby, has been given that)
It happens.. Just make sure to feed the baby at regular 2-3 hour intervals.
