Constipated for the first time :( BLW?

We BLW Lo hasnt been ingesting to much, and lately has less interests, so I dont think it is anything he has eaten.  My diet hasn't changed. We EBF.  I am thinking it must be teething. His two top teeth should be pushing through anyday, he has started drooling again. I have been giving him little sips of water to help if he is dehydrated.  Is there something I should offer him BLW to help the constipation?   

He pooped once yesterday and none today.   He has always pooped and we EC so every morning on the potty he poops.

    This is actually really normal for EBF babies. DD poops once a day except then once in a while she will go a couple of days without. It doesn't mean they are constipated, just that you can expect a 'huge' diaper soon! No need to give him anything.

    What Louise said!  The past few weeks, DS started to skip a day occasionally.  This was before we introduced solids, which he didn't ingest anyway.

    I am jealous. My DD still poops 2x a day, almost like clockwork. Sometimes she still adds a 3rd one in there. I have 1 poopy kid.
