Question

The baby seems constipated. She hasnt pooped since yesterday morning and she pushes until she turns red and then whimpers because she cant poop. What can i do? The nurses at the hospital said that her formula is catching up to her so i shouldnt be worried unless its been 4/5 days since the last time she pooped?   Shes 11 days old?

The q tip thing works immediately, I put a little Vaseline on it and insert the tip, hold it there like 10 seconds and move it around.

You can put the tip of a qtip inside her bum. It will make her push.

Rub her belly firmly but gentle in a clockwise motion. Then take her legs and do a bicycle motion and push her knees up to her stomach back and forth with some pressure. It helps after a few times!
