::my 3 week old..::

is probably constipated... he doesn't fuss over it, but he hasn't pooped in like a few days. I use these suppositories, it works, but then he hs an upset stomache. before i used kayro syrup and mixed a tad bit into his formula. but that didn't work.. what helps him poop?

Are you breastfeeding? It's quite common for a bf baby to go up to 10 days without pooping. Landon went a week without pooping when he was a few months old, I brough him to the Dr just in case and that is what he told me. Good luck. Hope he isn't constipated!

If he was really constipated, he would be in pain and have a distended stomach. Your best bet is to ask your doctor.

I use to put I stopped producing so I had to switch to formula

when my daughter was born, she got constipated & the nurse told me to lay her on her back & put her knees to her chest, also to do a rectal temp~ I hated the nurse doing it rectal temps make me cringe   , but it worked

Every baby is different. If he isn't in pain then he probably isn't constipated.
