My nearly 5 month old has always been slow with her bowels, but bowel movements always appear normal.
I've been to the doctors this morning though because it's been two weeks since she last went. (Normal for her seems to be once a week)
She has been in no pain. Let me touch her tummy, has wind as normal , isn't sick etc so the doctor was a bit unsure but prescribed lactulose.
Since getting home she has pooped. It is slightly thicker than normal but seems still normalish to me. Just be nice to get some other Mums perspectives if this is normal looking or if it was constipation or any other ideas (She is EBF and otherwise very healthy and happy)
Thanks in advice for any advice, comments.

To me this looks normal! My baby is EBF but has allergies so I am extremely relieved when she has a nappy like this😅

Yup normal. Some ebf babies get just exactly what they need so they don’t produce a lot of waste, my sister was the same as a baby, pooped once a week and dr said that’s what was happening!
