Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. it is totally normal for small children less than 6 months of age not to pass stool for 10 days also.
it is also normal if they are passing stool more than 6 or 7 times per day.
if the consistency of the stool is Semi solid to solid there is no need to worry about the frequency as well as the colour (the colour can range from yellow brown green to black) of the stool.
also straining while passing urine and stool is normal.
Do burping for 15 to 20 minutes
from your history it appears that your child is having colic pain due to gas in abdomen
in colic pain you can give anti colic medicines like colicaid 0.5 ml to the child and this medicine can be given maximum three or four times per day but to prevent this problem kindly do regular burping for 15 to 20 minutes.
do not kee ep the child back on the bed after one burping (all gas is not removed with one burping)
during the colic episode you can do stomach massage and limb cycling xmovements and if the child is more than 2 months of age you can give tummy time also.
advisable to learn more about it from your doctor.
