Re: Pooping problem

  • Call your pediatrician immediately!! Always call them if your LO hasn't had a bowel movement in 3 days!!

  • If you're BF, it's normal for babies 6wpp+ to not have a dirty diaper for up to 10 days. If you need piece of mind, a rectal thermometer works like a q-tip, or a suppository works. My ped recommended a suppository when my LO was 2 weeks old. Definitely call before trying medication though; they know best!
