Infant not passing poop
Hi, my baby is 5 months old n she is on complete breast feed. She did not pass the poop last 6 days n she is passing urine and no vomiting. Her tummy is not tight.
If she did not pass poop can I give Laxopeg kid sachet 1/2 sachet daily once.
Please suggest if this medication is OK or any other alternative

Not necessary. Wait for 2 more days before starting medications

Continue breast feeding, do not worry. Baby on breast feed, pass stool once in 6-8 days, so wait
