My 2 month has not pooped in 5 days. I am not sure if I should be worried or not. I am a bit worried about it. Does anyone have any advise about this.

Hi it depends if your baby is breast fed or on formular. Breast milk can be absorbed by your baby more easily than formular and therefore your baby will not poop as much. If your baby seems to be in pain, passes small hard poop, is straining or blood in poop then is likely to be constipated or in some cases might have a bowel problem and you should see a doctor. If feeding formular you may need to reduce the mix a little so it passes more easily. I hope all is well with you and your baby.

Thank you. He is breastfed so that explains that but he pooped 2 days in a roll after the long break so I guess he was just stalling.

Mimzy I don’t have children but anything like that again it’s always best to be safe so just check with a GP or emergency room.
