A. As the only food infants take is either breastmilk or formula milk, it gets digested easily and comes out in the form of urine or sweat. Therefore, even if baby does not poop for 7-8 days at stretch, there is no need to be concerned. As long as baby is active and does not show any signs of discomfort, you can be relaxed.
