A. no medication firstly. It is absolutely normal for the baby to not pass motion daily even for up to one week if the baby is on breastfeeding and it's not unhealthy. Check for pee counts 6-8/day is fine . if it is above one week or baby s in trouble then you can apply glycerine suppository for easy motion of the baby . no syrup for medicine is given orally till 2 years of age for constipation by yourself as it's not safe .
