Hi, my 3 month old didn t pass motion for 4 days then doc inserted glycerin suppository on 5th day. After which he passed yellow pasty motion twice on that day but again he is not passing motion.He is majorly on breastmilk only 30 % formula. Is he constipated, how can I do to cure his constipation? And is there any diet which mom should follow to help breastfed baby?
Thanks for posting your query at Chat Doctor. Do not worry. It is normal for a small child to pass stool once in 10 days as is passing 10 times in one day. Just continue giving him breastfeeds. If you can, it might be helpful to increase the amount of breast milk to 100% if feasible. Whatever a mother eats is basically what the baby gets. Just eat a healthy diet, but it is basically for two persons not one. You may like to include all sorts of flavors which will enrich your babies taste. If you stay healthy, the chances are that your baby will stay healthy too. Hope that will take care of your query. Feel free to communicate back in case of further queries if any.
