Question
My baby hasn’t had a bowel movement in five days, and they’ve started to pass smelly gas, and their appetite isn’t as good as it used to be. Is my baby’s bowel movement time too long?
Answer
This situation with your baby is classified as infant constipation, which may be somewhat related to the feeding method. If your baby experiences severe crying and loss of appetite due to this symptom, you can consider using external soap sticks or glycerin suppositories for temporary treatment.
