A. If your daughter hasn't passed stools in 10 days, it's important to monitor her closely and consult with your pediatrician. Constipation can sometimes occur in exclusively breastfed babies, as breast milk is easily digested and can lead to fewer bowel movements. Here are a few steps you can take in the meantime: Tummy Massage: Gently massage her tummy in a clockwise direction to help stimulate her bowels. Bicycle Legs: Move her legs in a bicycling motion to relieve gas and stimulate bowel movement. Warm Bath: A warm bath may help to relax her and relieve any discomfort. If your baby is not showing signs of discomfort, is still feeding well, and is otherwise healthy, it might just be a temporary phase. However, if she seems uncomfortable, bloated, or shows signs of pain, it's crucial to consult a pediatrician. The doctor may recommend gentle remedies, such as a stool softener or other interventions based on her condition.
