Constipation in Babies less than 1 year is very common and more in formula fed babies and also when initially the semi solid food has been started after 6 months .
your can give bonnisan drops and some enzyme preparations in proper dose suggested by doctor and cow's milk should be avoidred before 1 year of age . Medications are required but it should be given only in medical supervision .

Hi mom 
Constipation is common in new born babies. 
Babies can go without poop for a week altogether. 
if ur baby is active and comfortable otherwise, accepting feeds then no need to worry. 
Take care and all the best
