8 month old baby, pure breastfed. eats solids in very small amount.has not pooped for 6days.no signs of discomfort.should i worry?

Mgt: I would suggest offering supplemental pedialyte after breastfeeding for the next one day. If she still has no stool, please consult your PCP. During the next visit, please review her neonatal screening tests which were performed at birth. Is she growing well?
