My baby is 14 days old and hasn’t passed stool for the last 8 days. He is not gaining weight. He often cries during breastfeeding, and sometimes he becomes sleepy while feeding. His stomach feels soft, and he is otherwise active, but we feel that his stomach doesn’t get full after feeding. Please advise what could be the reason and what we should?#asktheexperts

Q. My baby is 2 months old. He hasn't passed stool for the past 9 days ( last passed on 4th July). His urine output is fine and also he is gaining weight. However, during evening time he doesn't take breast feed properly and cries continuously (may be due to colic). This same routine has happened for the past 7-8 days. Is it a constipation issue? If so can anal suppository be given to him to pass stool for comfort?
