Your baby needs to be evaluated for constipation. 10 days between stools is a long gap and is not normal. A thyroid test needs to be done as well. Visit your pediatrician at the earliest.

It's a common problem but usually nothing to worry about. Give glycerine child suppository (anal tablet). You can use it every 4 days if needed. Please consult a pediatrician if it's recurrent to rule out other problems
