Baby hasn’t pooed all day

Is there any advice on if this is ok? He went for a poo in the night but hasn’t been since and seems to be very irritable and was wondering if there’s anything we can do to help?

Have you tried baby massage like hands on tummy with slight pressure in clock wise movements ? Or there’s also bicycle curls/ up into squat and down straight! Loads of videos on YouTube of exact movements my girl is 6 weeks hasn’t properly pooped in 2 days only a tinyyyy blob when I helped her GP also checked her and said to see how tummy feels if hard then come back and also if they are throwing up differently then it’s an issue as baby isn’t feeding due to the poo! Also I’ve been eating loads of fibre today which seems to be making a difference she’s more comfortable and I noticed more farts so hoping the breast milk is moving those bowls xx

I had this exact issue (hadn’t went in two days!) and I asked the health visitor today. She said it’s nothing to worry about, as long as when he does poo it is soft.. Not sure if you’re bottle/breast feeding. But she also told me that breastfed babies absorb so much more in the milk so may go to the toilet less regularly than a bottle fed baby. I’ve been using infacol though to help with wind! Hope u get sorted ♥️

It's normal for them not to poo every day as long as they're weeing normally
