Worried first time mom!

B.C

My baby is 2weeks old and have no problem with BM (bowel movement). She turned 2weeks on Thursday and I stoped giving her formula since am making enough breast milk.

Baby had Bm on Friday morning then nothing till Saturday night and nothing all day Sunday. She is passing gas and has been crying a lot. I just don't know what to do.

Please any suggestion will be appreciated.

Update: so I was talking to my aunt who is an RN and my mom, I was reminded how we were raised lol. My mom said I had severe constipation at 2 weeks without having Bm for almost 2 weeks. I was told to rub Vaseline on her butt, get warm water with syringe aspirator and push the water on her butt and she will go.

And this was like magic. It worked instantly. It was an explosion 😷.

Note: I wouldn't have done this without my aunts supervision cos I was scared I might hurt my baby.

She slept of right after the Bm and too much crying was gone. I am just excited that I called my mom and my aunt showed up.
