What should I do if I am breastfeeding and haven't had a bowel movement for 7 days and the gas isn't smelly?

Patient's question:

Constipation in infants
My child is breastfed. This time, they haven't had a bowel movement for 7 days, but they frequently pass gas that isn't smelly. The same thing happened in the previous three instances. Using glycerin suppositories helped, and their stool wasn't dry. Duration and onset of the current episode: 7 days
Current general condition: No discomfort
Additional information: They also don't feel uncomfortable.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, some babies may only defecate once every week or so, which is commonly referred to as "constipation." As long as the baby does not show any abnormal symptoms such as fever, vomiting, abdominal distension, intellectual disability, or poor feeding, there is usually no cause for concern. If there are any other abnormal symptoms, it is necessary to visit the hospital to check for infections. A digestive tract color Doppler ultrasound should be performed to ensure there are no issues. It is important to avoid contact with individuals who have colds and to prevent the baby from catching a cold. Breastfeeding mothers should avoid consuming greasy, spicy, or irritating foods. If you believe your baby has a bowel movement but cannot pass it, a digestive tract color Doppler ultrasound should be checked. If necessary, look for any other potential problems.
