Perfectly normal for them to go several days without pooping, even up to a week is normal. As long as when she does go she isn't struggling or straining and it's still soft. If she starts struggling to poop or it gets firmer than see the pediatrician. Typically breastfed baby go longer between poops than formula fed babies.
My doctor said up to 1 week is perfectly safe as long as they still have plenty of wet diapers
they’re still little and their body’s trying to figure things out and milk has a lot of nutrients that they absorb so there’s no waste to put out
very normal after a week of no poo then go to dr per my pediatrician

It’s pretty normal. My little boy used to only pop once ever 2-4 days. If they go 5 days withought a poo you should speak to a GP but at this point it isn’t really anything to be concerned about. I was just greatful of not having to clean up too many poopy nappy’s 😂😂
