Hello mums, my 15 weeks baby has not pooped for several (more than 5) days now but she farts a lot and the fart smells like ewwwww... What can I do to make her poop?

Also, she has catarrh and cough, we took her to the hospital last week Monday and were given medicines to give her. But till now, it has not subsided. What else can I do? Thanks.

Sorry I didn't see d last part. Pls do not add any sugar nor honey until d baby is 1yr (that's what is adviced medically) only add formula or breastmilk

Tk her to a gd paediatrician. I think it ll b best if a dr physically examines her.

Tnx @bossladyMo, I truly apr8. I did tk pregnacare breastfeeding of which iron is listed nd d dizziness stopped though, but it was wen it reoccured I went to d hosp nd d doc told me to tk malaria drug dat is well tolerated by my system since all oda test came out gud.
I sincerely wish dis will stop completely.

Continue your pregnacare breastfeeding. You body obviously needs Iron.

Get another opinion if possible. Mention the iron deficiency.

Different advice has been given and I kno my mum used those methods mentioned for my niece's and nephews.

When my son was 16weeks and didn't poop for 3 days. I noticed he was straining to poop. I googled and most pple recommend prune juice. I didn't try d insertin soap into his anus. I bought Gerber prune and it worked. The 1st poop that comes out will be hard though cos it's been days without poopin.

Good morn mamas, it's been ages. Hope our los are bouncing, all glory to God.

Pls I want to know if it's adviceable to continue using the soap & cream you have been using from birth for an almost 3 yr old & if not, what soap & cream is recommended. Thanks all

MsPat:

In addition to all people av said, if u can get original "adin agbon" (local coconut oil) it works wonders. You can use it alongside shea butter and then get agnesia powder or st peter's prickly heat powder for the rashes.

Just make sure u get original ones.
kk.thanks a lot.

For d eyes, like someone suggested breastmilk is perfect.

For d rash, I ll suggest u leave it alone if u can. It will clear off on its own. Most babies do av such rash and this is mainly caused by hormones that babies receive from their mother at the end of pregnancy. U can read more about it by clickin d link below

@MsPat, Otonzy, Nita2013, thanks for your responses. I'm grateful. She pooped a little yesterday but as at this morning she was still straining to poop.

I am not comfortable inserting things in her anus. I may have to try the prune juice.

peak 123 is out of it. Go for formula for 4mnths old. Every baby reacts diff to the milk. Just try to find d one dt ur baby will like.
