Constipation: It is common to get constipated in the beginning with feedings, formula or breast feeding. You can use a glycerin suppository getting it over the counter in the pharmacy. Use 1 suppository after 3-4 d of pain, no stopping until better. You can also use gripe water OTC as well.

My 3 week old who is only breastfed often has gas, hiccups and uncomfortability an hour after fed, & dirty diaper every feeding. He did have 1 bottle of formula early and mom was on antibiotics. Could his microbiome be disrupted from that? Or normal?
