6 week old hasn't pooped for 2 days

[Bubbles021]

Hi all,
Probably being an over-worrier here but just looking for some advice/experiences.
My 6 week old hasn't had a poo since Wednesday evening. She is bottle fed, a mixture of breast milk and formula (I'd say 60% formula, 40% breast).
In her first few weeks she did poo pretty much after every bottle, then it slowed down to just a few times a day, then slowed down further to just once/twice a day, but now we're on day 2 with no poo at all.
She doesn't seem uncomfortable. She is still passing wind, feeding well and weeing normally. I've seen this can be normal for babies once they've passed 6 weeks, but I'm just wanting to make sure this is normal!
Thank you 😊

DD pooped once a week/10 days on average from about 2 weeks old until she started on solids, when she went to 2-3 times a day.

We got her checked at by the paediatric dept who stuck a glycerine suppository in to make sure what she wasn’t constipated, and was actually able to go, ruled out all the conditions I’d googled and sent us on our way (only reason we got seen by paeds was because she was recovering slowly from newborn jaundice as she wasn’t pooping it out).

We kept an eye on her weight etc to make sure she was tracking as expected, was feeding enough, weeing X times a day etc but it seemed to just be her natural rhythm. When she did poop, it was completely “normal”, no constipation, wasn’t uncomfortable or straining to go in between, just was her thing 🤷🏻‍♀️

@PanettoneMoly thank you for sharing! She has finally had a poo so I think we're all relieved haha!

Ah I remember this with my son!

We were also over the moon once he eventually poo'd!

We found a warm bath and tummy massage helped.
