They can go without pooping for up to a week. No action is needed unless they are crying or restless. This is quite common after starting solid foods.

It’s common for a baby’s stool pattern to change when new foods are introduced, such as solids. As their digestive system adjusts, it’s normal to see some variation in frequency.
Next Steps
Keep an eye out for warning signs such as hard or painful stools, bloating, refusal to eat, vomiting, or blood in the stool. If any of these occur, or if there’s concern about discomfort, it’s a good idea to check in with a pediatrician.
