Baby 3 1/2 months and has pooed twice in 2 weeks????

Hi, my baby is very constipated, she has gone for a poo only twice in two weeks and that has been a metallic green colour! I know this isn't right and I am going to the docs tom but I am so worried as to why. WE have tried water with brown sugar but this hasn't worked, we have rubbed her belly and moved her legs to see if that will get her moving but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else experienced this and if so any advice?? Thanks,

its quite common, esp in breastfed babies
dd3 was like this at aobut the same age, and still goes a few days without a poo, but itn's nothing to worry about. massage will help, but I wouldn't add anything to bottles or with water

Ds2 used to poo on average every 10 days. When he finally went it used to explode so I knew he wasn't constipated. If they are truly constpitaed they would be hard stools, not runny. Prune juice definitely works (if bf you drink it but be warned, it will affect your movements too!)

she is on formula and, yes, when she has gone for a poo it has been an explosion but a runny green poo (sounds disgusting!!). I just thought their poo should be yellow??
