Is Lack Of Bowel Movement In An Infant A Cause Of Concern?
Question: My 2 months old daughter has not poop for 3 days. What should we do please? Thank you!
Brief Answer:
It's normal
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Can understand your concerns.
A 2 month baby may pass stool once in 5 days, this is a normal thing unless child is crying.
If child is not crying then nothing needs to be done.
If child is crying, then you should give Simethicone drops like Colicaid drops 4 drops three times a day for 2 days.
I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
Take care.
