Suggest Remedy For Constipation In 4.5 Months Old
Our baby boy is 4 and a half months old and hasn't had a bowel movement for 10 days. The longest he has gone without a BM previously has been 5 days...so we're a little worried. He is breastfed...though to keep his weight up, we have had to supplement with some formula every once in a while.
