Baby not pooping
My son is 2 months 10 days old. Weighted 4 kg. He is on complete breastfeed, burping normally. Urine noted while changing the diaper everytime and passing gas sometimes. Medicine ongoing - Vit D drops, multivitamin drops, colicaid and pro GG
Problem - he didn't poop from 8-14 dec. Then pediatrician suggested dulcoflex suppository. Then he pooped on 14 dec. Then again he didn't poop till 18 dec. Then we gave dulcoflex suppository and he pooped on 18 dec. After which, pediatrician gave vitazyme drops. Now, again it's been 3 days (21 dec today). When can we expect him to poop ?
What should be done and which all medicine should we stop. Please help

No problem if baby is passing adequate urine.
If baby is active and playful, no fever, passing adequate urine ie. minimum 6-8 times per day, then no need to worry for motion
( once in 7 days or 15 times
per day- both conditions normal.
