A member asked:

My 14 week baby have not yet had a soiled nappy for 6days. he is mainly breastfed and formula sometimes. he cries and struggle to pass wind and when he does it is very smelly, what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Straining or irregular stooling doen not mean constipation.The 2 wk breast fed kid may go 7-10 days without a stool or poo a little at each meal.As long as it is soft, i don't consider that constipation. If the kid is putting out dry rabbit pellets or stool bigger than your finger you can add prune juice 1 oz 1-3X/d as a laxative.
