No poop...

neonstarfishneonstarfish
in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

In three days at 8 pm. He's been tooting.

Things I've tried:

Bicycle kicking, rubbing his belly, sitting him up, laying him down, gripe water, mylocin drops, q-tip with vaseline, bulb suction...

Things I havent tried:

Your suggestions.

He is BF, and I know BF babies can go a few days without a poop, but he seems so uncomfortable... :(

    BF babies can go a bunch of days and be okay.  Longest that I've ever heard of was 11.  My girl goes anywhere from every other day to no poo in 5 days.  So long as there's tooting his bowels are working.  All that's out the window if he's had anything besides breast milk.

    when rubbing babies belly always rub in direction of digestion, not against. See order below (that is for baby laying in front of you)

    Ped told me if lo seems uncomfortable to try giving ?an ounce or two of prune juice. ?They said after a couple days of doing that if lo still has not gone and still seems uncomfortable to try glycerin drops or something. ?I think 3 days is okay though. ?But def. do something if you think lo is uncomfortable.

    We put 1oz of prune juice with 3oz BM in a bottle and gave it to DD, and she pooped twice about 20 mins, then 30 mins later.  She had been backed up for about 3 days.  She was SOOOO happy after that.  =)
