Baby didn't pass motion for 5 days
My daughter, 13 weeks old, has not passed motion for last 5 days. She was breastfed and bottle feed (lactogen) before, but since 5 days only breastfeeding is done. Her BW was 2.75 kg and now she is 4.8 kg. I heard that breastfed babies tend to pass motion in long intervel.. should I be consulting a pediatrician or any home remedies are there..?

if she is having any trouble like colic, excessive gases, hard stools, etc. you can consult with a pediatrician. otherwise it is absolutely normal for breastfed babies to poop after a long interval
