hi
did Anyone have a baby that suffered from Infant dyschezia?
what were the symptoms and how did you help your baby?

my newborn is 4 weeks old, for 3 weeks now she strains, makes loud straining noises and face goes bright red. She only cries with it if she has woken herself up from straining otherwise no loud crying - just straining noises. She farts but doesn’t pass as much poo as it seems like she wants to with the straining. She poos once a day, it is soft so not constipated? but I feel like she wants to poo more. She has a twin brother who eats exactly the same & poos constantly

Yes, took him to an osteopath and he never did it again. Possibly just fluke but who knows

My baby had this! Grew out of it by themself by 4-5 M. We did do bicycle legs sometimes to help them go.

4 5M 😟 It’s making me upset seeing her strain so much.. she strains so loud and goes bright red. Yesterday I helped her pass lots of poo by putting a wet wipe on her bum with a bit of pressure, I think it stimulated it and lots lot of poo came out. It is soft so can’t be constipated. Doctor said it is colic but I don’t think so as she doesn’t ever cry just always straining.. so from my own research I think she may have this.
