Question

A one-month-old baby on mixed feeding has not pooped for up to 4 or 5 days, but each time it’s not dry and has a paste-like consistency. Moreover, the recent stool has a bit of green instead of the usual yellow color. Is there a problem? Previous treatment and effectiveness: used a rectal thermometer, quite effective but not something that can be used all the time. Desired assistance: how can the baby have normal bowel movements?
