Help! Ftm

Hello any of you guys know what to do when your baby haven't pooped in 1 day!
She's 3 weeks and is breast milk fed and formula fed

Re: Help! Ftm

  • Breastfed babies can poop as frequently as everyday to once a week and all is considered normal. As long as you are seeing the normal amount of wet diapers, and there are no signs of discomfort, your baby should be fine. Also, next time baby has a movement make sure the consistency is normal (no pellets).

  • DD did this every once and awhile. She was exclusively breastfed though I imagine in this situation they would be the same. As long as LO is still producing wet diapers like normal I wouldn't worry. You'll likely be getting a double dose tomorrow. If it keeps up like this I'd call your pediatrician.
  • Her stomach gets really hard at times and she seems to be pushing but nothing comes out and she starts crying

    Try bicycling her legs or rubbing her belly, it may help. Tummy time may as well because it will put pressure on those organs.
  • I have all day.... And nothing seems to help.. Y just hate seeing her in pain when she pushes
  • Try some gas drops too! My LO gets like that as well. I do the massage of the belly the running man of the legs and gas drops. Also I had to switch formula as well.
  • I did give her gas drops as well and nothing seems to be working for her! I think it might be tge formula as well I'm going to have to call the pediatrician tomorrow
    I just hate seeing my baby in pain
  • This happened to my LO and our pediatrician told us to take a rectal thermometer lube it up and insert it a half inch to an inch. They said that would help stimulate things and sure enough it did. I haven't had to do it since.
  • The people that made the nose Frida also make a thing called the Windi. It's for gassy babies. Similar to using a thermometer. Might be worth looking into that too.
  • Do you guys think it could be that km giving her formula and Breast milk?? Like one time and one time? Cause I just started formula last week... Maybe her stomach us getting used to it?
