I’m pretty sure my little one is constipated, he’s pooped once in 2 days, but I’ve been told it’s normal for breastfed babies to go days without pooping, I was gonna call his pediatrician in the morning, any opinions, what do you guys know about this??
Just got my one month old to pee AND poop in the potty ☺ #godiaperfree
Anybody else experience days without pooping followed by days of constant pooping?
33+6 Days....TMI.....Why is my poop green?
My poor baby hasn’t pooped in 3 days :(
Ok mommy’s I’m confused , if I’m not mistaken when I took my newborn to his 2-3 day check up when we got out the hospital , the doctor said once or twice a day or every other day pooping is normal , he’s on formula exclusively so I’m wondering for the mommy’s that formula feed , how many times does or did your newborn poop a day? Or ? Cause he’s been pooping once every other day and I don’t want him to go to long with out pooping! 😔😟

It’s normal as they are “still learning to poop”. If there’s any sign of discomfort you can rub his belly in small circles in a circular motion on his belly and if he’s straining bring his knees to his chest and it should help him

I did and still do what @pipelinemama said at least once a day, even if he seems fine, just to help things along. My son went 7 days without pooping and he wasn't actually even trying to go, but that was at 5 weeks old. I would just call and make sure with his doctor in the morning.

It's normal. They can go days without pooping. Does he seem uncomfortable at all?

@tayyandgrayy, my baby went 3 days without pooping several times. I've heard of others going up to 7 without. Breastmilk usually always pushes any constipation out tho. This is one reason I haven't stopped yet. Lol when she starts whole milk I'm still going to hang onto breastfeeding until I see how she does with the transition. 😊
