Hey.. is he exclusively bf or formula?? It is normal for ebf babies not to poop for upto 8 days.. give little tummy time, massage and cycling excercise.. you can give colicaid if he is gassy and cranky. Please do not give any puree so early. Consult your ped if you feel your lo is very uncomfortable.. should be all great.. Good luck momma..

hi Shruti! please do not give anything to baby till 6 months of age except breastfeed . it's okay for a baby to not poop for 4-5 days. in case he seems uncomfortable u can consult your doc. please keep giving breastfeed after short intervals.

Shruti hi! in this case give Asafoetida( hing) take a pinch of hing in a spoon full of milk. let the hing dissolve in the milk completely and make your baby drink it. Any gas problem, problem related to hard stool will ease out. your boy will be able to poop easily as well.

Shruti please do not give anything other than breastfeed to baby . however u can dissolve a pinch of asfoetida (heeng) in lukewarm water and apply it on the toenails of baby if he doesn't poop for next 2-3 days. I would again like to mention here please if he's​ uncomfortable do consult your doc.
