Baby's poop

Hi! I now have a week old little girl 😊 She is breastfeeding / topped up with formula if she needs it.

She hasn't had a poo since Monday. Was just wondering if anyone has any ideas to help encourage it?

We've tried massage, baths, winding before/during and after feeds, lying her on her tummy on my knee and give her infacol.

She has more breast milk than formula and has good wet nappies, it's just the poo that's taking its time.

Any advice gratefully received!!
