My Lb is nearly five months and has and still is ebf.... His digestive system hasn't had the best start with horrendous reflux and we are just reducing the ranitidine now as symptoms very slowly are getting better...
My lb only poops when he is breastfeeding. He literally can not go unless he is feeding... I can tell it's a feed for him needing to poop rather than hungry as he behaves and feeds differently at the breast. Is this normal?
I'm worried when I wean he is going to suffer badly from constipation if he can't poo without bf.
Of note on the paternal side of the family including dh all suffer from IBS/crohns etc so maybe I am just a bit anxious....
I massage and do bicycle kicks but no luck helping him poo? Any advice or reassurance?
