Nothing wrong: If your friend is breast feeding, the infant can have stool with each feeding, go once a day , or go as a week without having one. All normal. If bottle fen baby can go from one to three days with no problem.

Suffered from chronic constipation since a infant. History of occasional hemorrhoids. I notice after I have a good BM sometimes if I push abit to make sure its all out, I feel like there's more stool but it won't come out. Is that a sign of cancer?
