My 9wk old DD seems to be constipated. She is combination fed (60% breastmilk, 40% formula) all of which is via a bottle (I express). For the last 4-5 wks she's had a poo at least once but usually two or three times a day. Now she hasn't had a poo for 40hrs and seems really uncomfortable and in a lot of pain.
I've called the Dr but they can't see her unless it's an emergency...
So what tips do you have? She's off her milk quite a bit too. She's only taken half of two feeds given so far today (next due soon). She just seems so unhappy when awake. I'm doing the leg cyvling and tummy massage but it's not solved anything yet unfortunately.
Should I try water? Juice? Or go to the chemist?
