What Causes Infrequent Bowel Movements With Smelly Farts In Infant?
Hi my 5 month old baby has gone from pooing once a day to once every 3-4 days and farting horrificly smelly farts. He is breastfed but has been having a little farex of a night for a few week but I have given him a rest as he wasn t too keen was going to give him another go in a few weeks.
Hello. Welcome to HCM. Don't worry. A breastfed baby can stay also for a maximum of 10 without any pooing and that is normal because breast-milk is easily absorbed and that is what makes breastfed babies to poo not frequently. The smelly fart does not indicate any thing that you should worry.Maybe it's something that you have eaten. With time and introducing solid everything will change.
