I don't have any personal experience though - LO is a poop machine. I would call my pediatrician just to be safe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/5-days-without-a-bm#post-95903 Sun, 18 Mar 2012 07:52:13 +0000 heffalump 95903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've probably been 4 days without one. She had constipation issues when she was younger. We gave her pear or prune juice, but pedialyte was the thing that worked best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/5-days-without-a-bm#post-95900 Sun, 18 Mar 2012 07:36:53 +0000 chopsuey 95900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo went 12 days without one! She was around 8 months old and was on solids though. She had such a huge and hard stool! :( since your Lo is so young and ebf she should be okay..I think? Esp since she still has wet diapers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/5-days-without-a-bm#post-95893 Sun, 18 Mar 2012 02:31:07 +0000 autumnlove 95893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 2.5 months old and is breast fed and given bottles of pumped milk.. It has been 5 days since her last bowel movement...she still has a lot of wet diapers and seems fine. Should I be concerned!?</p> <p>What is the longest your LO has gone without a BM? </p>
