ok, so our little DS is almost 5 months old, and has been exclusively breastfed (boobies and EBM in a bottle) since birth.

when he was first born, he did a poo every nappy change, and since around 4 weeks or so, he's shifted to a poo every other day. occasionally, the second poo will be after 3 days, but then he'll often catch up, but doing another poo the next day, and so still doing 2 poos in 4 days.

but he hasn't done a poo in days! it's got to be 5 days, now. maybe 4.

help! diet hasn't changed (his or mine), water intake is the same.

I've been trying to do the "cycling" with his legs ...

sometimes it seems like he's straining, and he's kind of unsettled, but I'm also thinking he might be teething ... so I don't know!

how do I get the poo out? or is he actually fine?
