HI ladies - DS used to poop once or twice a day, regularly. All of a sudden, she stopped
She is clearly uncomfortable, her tummy grumbles, but no poop. When this happened the first time, we did the thermometer in the butt trick and that helped. However, it's now the 3rd day and she still hasn't pooped. The thermometer trick is not working.
Any tips here? I called the pedi, he said that around 4-6 weeks babies may change their pooping pattern and some babies do skip days, but that's not helping. He also recommended Karo Syrup, but I Googled that and the Mayo Clinic says that remedy does not work with newer formulations of Karo.
Any advice? I'm doing other research now, but hopefully you can help with some tips that helped your LOs. And FYI - DD is EBF. Is it something I'm eating?
Thanks!
