Constipated
My 4 week old baby tends to poo every 3 days but does seem really unsettled on day three and struggling to get it out. Can anyone recommend anything? We try bicycle legs and massaging his stomach also feed him upright but it’s not working. I have also given him gripe water this morning.
Any recommendations would help 💙

Are you formula feeding? We had the same issue with our 3 week old and our midwife told us to use pre made formula due to the laxative in it and we find this works! We give one 120ml bottle a day and she’s now pooing at least once every 24hrs If you’re breastfeeding we read good reviews on the Windi Gas and Colic Reliever. We brought some as a next resort but haven’t had to use them as of yet x
We are formula feeding he is on cow and gate 5oz every 3 hours xx
We had the same issue when we were using aptamil, since switching to Kendamil Comfort baby girl has been going multiple times a day! Honestly we can’t fault it and the formula is so much less sweet xx
