A. Hello good morning !! It is not recommended to use suppository frequently. As baby is on Breast feed constipation is normal in few babies until 3-4 days is ok,if baby is active ,taking feed normally without gas,tight tummy discomfort. But as its been 7-8 days ,do tummy massage with warm castor oil or coconut oil gently massage in clockwise direction with finger tips for 5-8 minutes,this will helps in relieving from gas,constipation issues.

Q. is glycerin suppository bad for babies? My baby is 6 weeks and is not regular in his bowel movements. He did not poop for 3 days in a row and we used suppository and it's been again 3 days that he has not pooped. He shows discomfort if not pooped. I am sceptical about using suppository again as it seems to have regular now. His pead says its fine and once baby turns 3 months he will have control on his bowel movements and we will not need suppository any longer. Please suggest.
