When should I call the doctor ?

Question

When should I call my baby’s doctor ? She’ didn’t poop yesterday and hasn’t pooped yet today. She’s 5 months old and is formula fed.

Answer

There is no need to panic. Just cause there’s a couple days with no poops doesn’t mean there’s harm. 
Unless there is actual hard pellet poops then it’s not constipation. Breastmilk fed babies can go 12days without pooping and formula fed can go up to 10days. Do NOT give anything but milk. No juice, no water, no karo syrup. Nothing of the sort.

Answer

I wouldn’t worry until it’s been 5+ days or baby seems in pain, then call a doctor for advice if and when to give a suppository or whatever they recommend. Have you tried a belly massage and bicycle kicks? Always worked for my baby
