Mommies baby doesn't have a bowel movement , it's been 2 days 😭😭 what do I do ladies 1 week and 2 days old 🤷🏽 ♀

When my little one had the same problem, dr suggested a couple of things. Use a thermometer to stimulate his rectum. That can get the muscles moving. Also to put a tsp of lite kayro syrup in his bottle. Only does this once in a 24 hr period. I found the thermometer to work best. Used a little Vaseline to lubricate it.

Damn I'm so scared to put a thermometer up the rectum @whitneyp, I did the syrup this morning .

Is baby on breastmilk or formula?

When mine was that small the Dr said it was okay to go up to 4 days without pooping

Both , but mostly formula just gave him 2 oz of breastmilk though @mommytobe98,

It can be normal for breastfed babies to not have a bowel movement for a few days so I'd call and ask the doctor if you should even be concerned

@miamimommy17, I was too! But just the very tip and he really didn't seem to mind. And I could tell he was really relieved when he finally pooped.

@mommytobe98, Ima wait it out but if not I will call the doctor .

@whitneyp, okay I'll try it later when my husband gets home
