1 month old baby constipated

My baby is 1 month today and hasnt pooped in 24 hours. Should I be concerned? She's mainly breastfed with a formula supplement now and again which is usually 90ml once. Or twice a day. Any advice is appreciated.

Does baby seem content? After around 4-6weeks, babies will generally go less and each baby has their own pattern. Not pooping after 24 hours is not usually a concern.

Its normal my baby is breastfeed and she would poop every 2 to 3 days and I talked to her dr and babies who are mainly breastfeeding my other 2 babies every other day and I had to use formula and breastfeeding

If she hasn’t pooped in 48 hours, you can get a Frieda Baby butt straw… I forget the name. Lube it up and it’ll help stimulate gas and poo movement. This happened to me too!

From breast to bottle

Hello, has anyone had issues trying to get their breast fed baby to take a bottle? I went back to work and my 10wk old has been refusing the bottle for my partner. Any suggestions?

Poop Question

Sorry if this is tmi, but out of nowhere around 5 weeks my baby’s poop suddenly has mucus-y strings throughout and it isn’t getting better or worse just still there a week later. We’re going to the pediatrician tomorrow to have her take a look but I don’t think dairy is the culprit because I am mostly dairy free and he doesn’t have any other symptoms of a dairy allergy. I’m wondering if anyone has noticed that their letdown caused this? I have a really strong really fast letdown and I’m an oversupplier and think that could be what’s causing the issue?

From cosleeping to cot 13month old

Send help. I’m trying to get my EBF 13 month old to sleep in his cot, at least the first half of the night to start with.

If I transfer him and he doesn’t wake up it’s usually ok. But if he wakes up, he screams - like there’s no tomorrow! It’s so overwhelming. I end up just putting him back in the big bed with me if it’s too much.

Anyone in a similar position with any advice??

Opinions

Does anyone else feel less attracted or wanting to have less sex because of how useless they are as a partner/person/dad. Like the longer we’re together the more things piss me off about him and his actions.

Since vaccines are a topic today. You do realize u wouldn’t know if your child is in a class with unvaccinated kids right?!

These post are so funny to me because how we feel about vaccines and our kids being around unvaccinated vs vaccinated kids, doesn’t matter because schools aren’t going to disclose medical records for parents to even know what’s going on. We all want to protect our kids but if they are in school there’s no knowing who they are around…
