Now the baby is four and a half months old, must the bowel movement be held?

Patient's question:

Now the baby is four and a half months old. If she wants to have a bowel movement, she needs to be held down for it to happen. Even if she falls asleep while lying down, she will wake up. If she is left lying down, she won't have a bowel movement. Is this normal? Before, it seemed that whether she was lying down or being held, she would have a bowel movement.

Doctor's answer:

According to the materials you uploaded, a four-month-old baby must be held down to have a bowel movement. This situation may be related to his habitual habits. If the color, shape, consistency, and frequency of the stool are normal, the defecation is normal, the weight gain is normal, and the spirits are normal, there is no need to worry too much. The above is advice on the question "Now the baby is four and a half months old, if she wants to have a bowel movement, she must be held down." I hope it helps you. Wish you health!
