A. Hi, If baby is passing stool normally even after 4-7 days, That's normal in new born babies. R u breastfeeding or giving formula? constipation could also be because of formula. You should not give medicine or suppositories often as it may form a habit. Continue breastfeeding till 6 month exclusively.

A. Hey mom,you shouldn’t really use anything that’s not suggested by your doctor.The best for constipation is to burp you baby after every feeidng properly,put hing oil on their stomach and massage for a while and the gas will pass Also give colic aid drops,they help a lot with digestion
