Question

Is it normal for a baby to not have a bowel movement at five months old?

Answer

Hello, if a baby has bowel movements one to two times a day or not at all, as long as there are no symptoms of abdominal swelling, crying, and abnormal feeding, there is no need to worry. Remember to give the baby more water. If a child is diagnosed with a digestive disease, it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor’s treatment and pay attention to diet and hygiene habits.
