Is it normal for a baby who is more than 3 months old not to have a bowel movement for two days?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

The baby is still young, and their digestive system function is quite weak. It may be that the calcium supplement has put additional strain on the baby's stomach, spleen, and intestines, which the baby cannot tolerate. Since you have already stopped using it, you cannot immediately restore the baby's digestive system function. It is recommended that parents frequently massage the baby's abdomen with warm hands to help with gastrointestinal peristalsis and enhance gastrointestinal function. This method has no side effects, and persisting with it can bring many benefits. Additionally, has the baby recently had a cold? If the fire from the lung meridian descends to the large intestine, it can also cause constipation in the baby, as the lung and large intestine are interconnected.
