Hi ladies, my 2 week old is exclusively breastfed and was pooping daily up until 24 hours ago. He hasn’t pooped since early hours yesterday. Still having 7-8 wet nappies daily but advice on NHS says they should continue to poop daily up until 6 weeks when it might become less frequent. He doesn’t look uncomfortable but Is this normal?

Completely normal. My baby didn’t poo for 5 days when she was 3 weeks old. I took her to the doctors, they said it’s where their bowls are learning how to work

thank you! It’s so confusing because the midwife says if they don’t poop for 48 hours to go to a&e!
