Is it normal for a baby to not have a bowel movement for three days at 40 days?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that when you feed formula, add more water and use less formula. Since the baby hasn't had a bowel movement for three days, you can use a 5-mL syringe to draw 1.5 mL of glycerin and inject it into the rectum. Use a sanitary pad to hold it in for a while before defecating. For the facial eczema of the baby, you can apply externally Curcumin cream locally for treatment.
