My baby hasn’t pooped in 4 days???

Question

My 9 month old hasn’t pooped in four days now... if he doesn’t poop at all today it will be 5. Is that normal ?!?? This hasn’t happened before. Usually he poops multiple times a day. Should I be worried and let the doctor know ?

Answer

Mine went 8 days once!!! She is breastfed.  We think we stopped her with something she ate a bit too much of (like bananas)

Answer

My baby was five days without pooping and I gave her regular prune juice and lots of water and then she poop twice that day

Answer

Lucky.... mine has had at least one blow out a day for the last few days

Answer

Some babies only poop once every other day/once a week. But if your baby has been pooping multiple times a day before he’s probably constipated. Unless he’s vomiting or feverish or something I wouldn’t worry about that. 
Maybe try some natural laxatives like prunes

Answer

Is he breast or formula fed? Breastfed babies go way less. Try feeding him prune juice, blueberries and whole grain bread . That should help get things moving.
