My one month old baby boy applies too much pressure for passing stool. Consistency of stool is very soft, sometimes bit watery. He has not passed stool since last 2 days. He is taking normal feed (breastfeeding) and passing urine at regular intervals. Earlier he had distended abdomen, so a paediatrician suggested GASTICA (0.3 ml thrice a day) & BESTOZYME (0.3 ml twice a day). Please suggest how to make him avoid applying that much pressure. I am worried about that.
