Since having the snip he’s become super needy and won’t settle unless he’s in your arms. Know midwives/nurses say the op doesn’t b...

We switched my baby to formula about two weeks or so ago. He switched to only having one big poop, maybe a couple tiny poops a day. But now he is going on 36 hours without a poop. What can I do?
