Constipated 3 month old, getting worried

Have you tried gentle tummy massages (circular clockwise movements; resist the urge to press down)? Bicycle legs? A warm bath if their belly button has healed? Have you been to the doctor? They don’t tend to worry unless it’s been 7 days but I’d go considering your LO is unsettled.

i second all of this, tummy massages are very helpful. if she is breastfed it’s very normal for her to not poop for up to 10 days but formula fed is a bit different. i can’t remember the exact amount of days but if she is unsettled it’s worth talking to a doctor or nurse about

@Ev @Evonne she's formula fed and I've tried everything but so far no luck think I may have to go doctors and see if they can help or I read that a baby can have a very small of fruit juice if they are over 3 months but not entirely happy giving her juice until spoken to doctor. Thank you for both your advice

One oz water mixed with one oz apple juice once a day is what my pediatrician had me do at 2 months. Worked after one day

Since you said she is formula fed let your gp know so they can help. My daughter didn’t poo for 5 days and warm water helped her on the 5th day but she’s breastfed. Keep doing the leg exercises and feel if her belly is hard. If it is then she is definitely constipated.

My midwife suggested 5ml of OJ (no bits) diluted in 30mls cool boiled water & let baby have a couple of sips to stimulate her bowel. Worked well for us x

Lactulose saved our lives!! Helped my baby boy so quickly. You can give up to 5ml daily to relieve constipation. You will have a different baby! I would give it first thing in the AM, then warm bath in the PM to help them pass it! Works a treat 🥰🥰🥰
