Pooping

My lo hasn’t pooped since 7am on 19th of January. He keeps grunting and squirming when awake trying to poop but at the most he gets a fart. I’ve tried tummy rubs baths bicycle legs rotating lower half assist squats nothing is working. Any suggestions

I had the same issue, ended up taking him to the doctors after 4 days and got given laxatives x

Is he exclusively breastfed? EBF babies do this, mine went 10days before finally doing a biggggg poo, so most times there is nothing to worry about as they will eventually poo. But If you are worried, trust your mama instincts and visit the GP

How old is he? Also, is he breastfed? For breastfed babies, this is very normal, mine went a week without a poo once x

@Irene he BF in the day and Formula at night whilst I’m trying to get my pumping supply up enough to give him that in bottles. I manage to give two of his night bottles as BM and he did a big poo.

@Jasmine combi fed, he managed to poo last night but it took some work

What helped in the end? Xx
