Well baby on exclusive breast feeds might not poop daily..it's normal if they don't poop for a week or so..if baby is active,not unusually irritable,  passing urine normally and not vomiting and abdomen is soft then we can wait.. A baby who passes stools that are not hard and not difficult to pass is not constipated.. See a pediatrician if u feel any problem..
