A. If your 2.5-month-old baby girl has not pooped for six days, it's understandable to be concerned. It's not uncommon for young infants, especially those who are exclusively breastfed, to have infrequent bowel movements, as breast milk can be very well absorbed by their bodies. However, going this long without a poop could indicate that she may be experiencing constipation or another digestive issue. Signs of discomfort, such as straining, fussiness, or a hard belly, can indicate that she is having difficulty passing stool. It's essential to monitor her overall behavior and feeding patterns. If she seems comfortable and is feeding well, it may be okay, but you should consult your pediatrician for guidance. They can assess her condition and recommend safe remedies, such as gentle tummy massage or changes to her feeding routine, to help encourage a bowel movement and ensure she is healthy.
