A member asked:
3mthold breastfed baby hasn't pooped in a week. has been gassy but when he finally pooped it was only a small amount & more creamy than usual. normal?

That certainly can: happen. Depending on what you're eating, and as he gets older, his stooling pattern can change. I would only be concerned if there is blood in the stool, he is crying more than usual or the stools are hard pellets that continue. If any of these occur, please call his pediatrician.
