Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. Stool pattern of small children changes from time to time.
It can be more than 7 times per day also and sometimes the child will not pass stool for 10 days also.
The most important thing is the consistency of the stool and if it is Semi solid to solid or sdemi liquid then there is no need to worry about the frequency as well as colour as well as the smell of the stool
Also straining and crying while passing urine and stool is very ndormal.
the crying of the child is due to colic pain and not due to constipation
SanthoshiMom of a 8 yr 1 m old girl2 years agoA. Not to wait after a week. Keep baby well hydrated. For now I feel and suggest It's better to check with your doctor and follow their advise. That would be one of the best and safest option for your baby as of now. Take care.
