Is it normal for the baby to have a bowel movement every six days?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Consider constipation. For this situation, you need to handle it from the following aspects: First, pay attention to your diet, reduce greasy foods, and eat more high-fiber fruits and vegetables. Second, drink more water, which is necessary for the baby. First, try to increase water intake, scheduling it between feedings. If the baby doesn't drink, you can add infant glucose or a cooling formula. Second, massage the baby's abdomen more often, making circular motions in a clockwise direction centered around the navel.
