So my baby literally hasn't popped in like 4 days he's breastfed but he's literally screamed for the last hour cause he's tummy hurts and idk what to do about it and no he doesn't have colic
My doc suggested an ounce or less of apple or prune juice to help with constipation
@augustbaby2016400, I use 2 ounces of apple juice and he goes by the next day like @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom said most bf babies go 5 days but mine cant even go 1 day without going come nighttime super fussy and i think did you poop today? if he hasnt as soon as he does hes no longer fussy and is so happy. i would try that.
@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, we have been doing that and if he does fart it's really hard for him to do so
I don't want to scare you or anything but my my daughter around 9 weeks was acting like her tummy was hurting, grabbing at it and wouldn't stay still for hours tossing and turning, also hadn't pooped in about 5/6 days. Turns out she had a viral infection, plus uti. Just watch the temp, but it very well could be a simply tummy ache. Try the bicycle motion on his legs, rubbing his belly, & a bath.
It's normal to go 5 days without a poop for breastfed babies. But i would rub baby's belly in clockwise circles and do bicycle movements with his legs. Has he been able to pass gas? Because that's a good sign that there's no blockage.
@rileysmomma16, he's only 5 weeks old but he's crying so much cause his tummy hurts
Gripe water! Depending on how old you can give some prune juice as well.
@rileysmomma16, thank you I was wanting to take him to the drvbut they can't get him in till Monday so she said if his stomachs not hard it's nothing to be worried about .. But he's content and sleeping now so that's a plus
