Constipation Posted: 02-20-06 20:05pm


My 10 day old baby has not had a bowl movement in 2 days. Eating habits are normal. What can I do?

Do you feed the baby by breast milk or formula? If it's formula, it's actually not uncommon for them to go up to 4 days without one, unless the stool is hard and pellet-like. Call your doc if you're worried though.
