What can I do for my 6 week old for constipation his poop hasn’t been hard but he also hasn’t went poop for a entire day now last night he was passing gas and I really thought he would go but everytime he started pushing he was screaming. Other then warm baths leg movements belly rubs I’m at a loss on how to help him gas drops help him a little with his belly.

At 6 weeks is when breastfed babies stop pooping daily I wouldn’t worry

It is uncomfortable to do but when we did it to her she wasn't even phased by it and it worked. Hopefully he finds some relief

When my daughter was around that age my Mom used the tip of a thermometer in her butt to stimulate. The poop arrived shortly after.

They were gonna do this at the hospital because he didn’t have his first poop until day 3 literally minutes before she brought the thermometer in there 😂. I feel so uncomfortable doing that though😩 I just want some relief for him though.

Breastfed or formula?

it's completely normal for breastfed babies not to poop for days. Even a whole week with no poop. Gassiness could be something you've eaten that may not be agreeing with his tummy. Around 6wk, some babies stop the multiple daily poops, or just the daily poops...
