Not passing stools for 2 days is NOT constipation. Exclusively breastfed babies may pass stools infrequently, sometimes only once in 5 to 6 days. This is completely normal and does not require any treatment. Avoid using any medications as these may have their own side effects. If baby doesn't pass stool even after 7 days, then meet your pediatrician who will guide you with the medication.
