1) ITS NOT CONSTIPATION. 2) MANY BABYS DONT PASS MOTION FOR 1 WEEK TO 10 DAYS. THEY WILL BE ACTIVE AND FEEDING GOOD. 3) SOMTIMES FORMULA FEEDS CAN CAUSE THAT. SO GIVE DIRECT BREAST FEEDING .

If baby is exclusively breast fed then it's normal for baby to not pass motion even for 10 days if there are no other signs of discomfort.
Next Steps
Some gentle massage over the abdomen will help to pass the motion
