No pls don't give anything other than your milk to the baby. Babies can pass motions 4-5 times in a day or once in 5-6 days, both are normal . Just see that the baby is active , playful and passing urine well. If the baby is cranky, better you consult your nearby pediatrician .
Next Steps
burp the baby well post every feed .
Health Tips

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 are totally normal.
