No motion(potty)
3 and a half month old baby who is on exclusive breastfeeding (approx 8 feeds a day) has not passed motion/potty in 3 days. Since birth he has passed motion daily (2-3 times a day). Baby is not showing any signs of discomfort except in evening time gets a little fussy. Urine output is normal(6-8 times a day) though spit ups occur right after feeds.
Please suggest if anything needs to be done for motions or is it normal?
