Does your baby scream whilst trying to poop? Normal?

[anonny55]

Ds is 6 weeks and screams whilst he’s trying to poop. The consistency is fine and all looks normal but he sits screaming for about 15 mins straight before he goes?!
he is not constipated , he goes twice a day. 🧐

Take a look at the enchanted nanny videos they do with Lucy an osteopath at the practice at ferndown clinic. She gives great advice, sounds like he just needs some help to get things moving a little easier for him.

My daughter suffered with infant dyschezia (would recommend discussing with your GP if this sounds like it could be your little one too) until she was around 5 months old. We were told there wasn't much to be done about it just that her system had to mature and that she would grow out of it - which she did! We were also told most grow out of it a fair bit earlier so hopefully this will be the case for you.
