[babyh2015]

Baby girl is 2 weeks and 1 day...this is second time this week she hasn't pooped for 36 hours. She's very uncomfortable and you can tell she needs to go. She's pushing and grunting and very fussy... I heard I can check her temp up her butt and that will make her go... anyone done this!?

If you are breastfeeding sometimes babies don't red to poop. But before you give get anything you should consult a doctor she too young to just get meds too. And there maybe be an obstruction  on her bowel

My first daughter had that problem I took her to the dr and they gave her mess for that.

I suggest thelrg pumping. Also look on YouTube for infant massage videos. They helped my daughter immensely.

Karo syrup will help tremendously... i had the same problem with my son and i also had to change his formula

Maybe look into see a osteopath that works with babies.  My mw recommend that I took my 2 and I will again with my next one. It releases the muscles and some how helps with the bowels to. Good luck.
If it happens regularly you might need to adjust bubs food.

Yes that does work. Just to let you know though some babies go for 14 days without pooping. My daughter wouldnt go for 5 days straight.

Get a q tip and put Vaseline on it and on you butt hole and insert as you would take a temperature  leave in for a minute to see if she tries to push it out but as you do it hold her legs push to her chest.good luck I hope this works

grab her ankles and slowly gently roll her knees into her tummy and straighten out legs and repeat a few times it will help with gas and poop.

This happened to my baby at the same age. Give the baby a small amount of karo syrup, a little smaller than a dime size amount. It will make her stool loose. You can find karo syrup at the grocer. If you bottle feed just put it in her bottles. My baby's formula was causing constipation so he gets one bottle a day with karo syrup to keep him regular.

Ive used a glycerin infant suppository on my first when she couldn't poop...I broke it in half and then just had to hold it there for a few and then she pooped everywhere
