3 month baby constipation
Hi Doctor,
My 3 month baby is constipated from last 22 days. She is not passing stool even after waiting for 7 days. We induced thrice already. After inducing she is passing very huge amount of stool. We tested t3, t4 and tsh, those also came as normal. What else is the problem, do I need to change my diet. Please suggest.

Is the baby on formula or breast feeds?
Next Steps
Babies on breast feed pass stools once in 7-8 days. This is normal for them. If baby is active/ not vomiting/ feeding well then you need not worry.
