Q.

Unknowingly, I ate six pieces of seer fish, which is high in mercury, while breastfeeding my 3-month-old baby. From the day I ate the fish, I noticed that my baby has been vomiting phlegm-like mucus and is not pooping regularly. He passes the stool once every three days, and the stool contains mucus..I want him to poop regularly.

A. Constipation is common in this age kids can go without pooping for 10 to 15 days also at a stretch and if the child takes feeding properly the urine output is good then there is no problem what you have eaten will not create any negative impact still I would advise you to talk to your doctor once
