Constipation

[Howaboutanotherusername]

Hi

my ds is 10weeks old and hasn't pooed for 2days now he is formula fed and has been taking infacol for a bit of reflux he's bringing up his wind and farting lots but nothing else,

i've tired a warm bath, massaging his tummy kicking his legs and cooled down boiled water but nothing :(

any tips?

Is he showing any signs of pain or discomfort. My ds used to get constipation at about that age and didn't go for 3-4 days at a time, also ff. GP recommended mixing a small amount of orange juice in with his feeds which I only tried once with moderate success but after a couple of weeks it sorted itself out.

no he's not he's been his normal smiley self doesn't seem to bother him

Formula feed babies should be offered cooled boiled water in hot weather to prevent constipation. Try offering some.

Infafol makes a reflux worse.

My FF DS used to go days, 5 or 6 often, until he was 6 months and we'd started weaning. For some babies it's just normal! If he's unhappy or you're worried take him to the GP. If he's ok I'm sure it will work it's way out

My health visitor advised against boiled water so small. Wait a day, my daughter was the same.

we had a nice pooey nappy this morning

Thanks everyone
