Hi,
Our baby boy is nearly 8 weeks old. His poo in the first 3 week was absolutely fine, and regular, but after that he started going only once a week, and it's now been 11 days since the last time he went!
We've been back to the GP 3 times and they seem relatively unconcerned. First time they thought his rectum was a bit tight and some poo did indeed come out when the doctor examined him. But no joy since. We are now giving him tiny bit of orange juice and have been prescribed some liquid laxative. He's been breast fed all along and apart from this is in good health.
Just wondering if anyone else has been through this and what the causes may have been?
Thanks!
