Baby pushing and struggling.

Does anyone else’s baby push like they’re going to take a massive poop but nothing comes out . My 1 month old does it I feel bad watching him looking like he’s struggling.

Either hold him in like a sitting position facing away from you and just bounce a little or go to change him and push his knees to his belly doing bicycle kicks and pushing his knees up can also help things just might get a little messy

When holding him him in the sitting position also push his knees to his belly a lil. If all else fails try stimulating his booty with a q tip and Vaseline. As long as he doesn’t go more than 5-7 days without pooping you shouldn’t have anything to worry about but I would say day 5 check in with a doctor. Hope this helps ❤️

My daughter did this for sooo long. We found she had an "optimal poop position" mostly reclined in the bouncer/high chair (we have a from birth one) We used to stick her in one of those when struggling and she went soon after!
