It is normal for babies to pass a motion after every feed for 1st 3 months of life,consistency may vary,and NO,he doesn't become hungry after passing stools. Maintain regular feeds(2 hours gap),be hygienic. In case of additional symptom like fever,vomiting,or refusal to feed,rush to your paediatrician.
