Super helpful, thank you so much ! He is showing signs of discomfort . A little more fussy than usual and very gassy. We’ve been giving probiotics for newborns which seems to be helping a bit. I just wanna make sure I’m doing everything I could be doing to help him feel better.
Following as I am going through the same with my 3 weeks old baby girl.
Hello, my baby went through the same thing. His doctor said they can go a week without bowel movement. To make sure the baby is getting plenty of liquids. For comfort we did bicycle movement, clock wise hand rubs on the lower stomach
@Liberty amazing!! Definitely going to look into getting this bc the warm towels haven’t been as effective. Thanks so much
Try baby massages for bowel movements! You can look it up on YT for a visual aid but I find any time my LO is backed up a good tummy massage does just the trick If you are breastfeeding I would also consider looking into your own diet to see if something you are eating is not agreeing with him xx
I think my baby girl (4 weeks) might be going through the same thing, but she is having little small BMs, but she's been fussy for a couple of days and has big toots.
Hang in there! Is your baby in distress from not pooping more frequently? I got Tubby Todd for my baby’s acne and it didn’t go away instantly like the marketing suggests but it’s gotten significantly better. I always put it on after I gently wash her face with warm water at bath time.
