If so, it is completely normal for her to go several days (even up to 10) without having a bowel movement. That is because babies use almost all that is in the milk and have little to excrete. That isn't constipated. Constipated is hard or dry bowel movements not infrequent. Is she exclusively breastfed?

We did, and she latched on and woofed it down. The girl still knows how to eat, that's a relief. We're hoping to get her some of momma's nectar in a bottle tomorrow. Will post a follow-up once we make some progress! Thanks for the feedback…so the little one has been constipated and the pediatrician said to give her some prune juice from a bottle.

It did take us awhile. Just wait until the sippy cup. That is an experience in itself. But back to it. Just make sure the kiddo is getting enough. That young they need to eat. Have you tried finger feeding with a dropper? Your fingernail may feel like it will fall off, but it does work. Offer the bottle first since they seem like they are drinking some.

We started feeding our little one from the bottle about the same time then stopped. That was the worst decision ever. It took a while to get her back on it, but she did. I would change up the bottle the routine, the location, sometimes I would put the tv on, sometimes she would be outside, sometimes we would rock. Just keep at it and relax - I know easier said then done. Our little one finally got back on the bottle and did great with the nanny. You will get through it. I feel your pain.
