A member asked:

My 6 week old daughter has not had a bowel movement in 24 hours. her pees are normal no fever. breast and formula fed. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bowel Movement in: Infant. They may go from several times a day to once a week. It is very much a variable thing. The idea that an infant has to go everyday or they are not " normal" is just not true. Think about how different we all are as adults. As long as baby does not have a rock hard tender abdomen, no fever, is eating well, and not tearing its little bum when it goes it is okay. What goes in will come out.
