Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms of your baby seem to be related to constipation.
I suggest using an over the counter laxativ option such a Miralax.
I also suggest to give him liquids.
If it doesn't work, you can use an enema to help with constipation.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
