#asktheexperts My son is 1.5 months old and is exclusively breastfed. He is urinating normally, but he passes stool only once every 4–5 days, and his farts have a bad smell. Could this be a problem? What should I do?

A. Actually, constipation is very common in babies and you can let the baby pass motion every one week also. But if it has been 4 to 5, there’s no harm in consulting a doctor, If the child hasn’t passed motion. Farts obviously will smell nothing much you can do about it .it doesn’t indicate health of the baby
