Baby doesn't poop
My 8 months old doesn't poop on his own. Sometimes for 4 days. On EBF, he had a good cycle. This has changed since starting semi solids. I've tried pears, plum, papaya, black raisin water. Nothing helps

Try increasing his water and fiber intake. Give soaked dates, black raisins, juices, which act as natural laxatives
