My LO isn't very regular...I wonder if I should be worried? No poop for over a week and she eats veggie solids in addition to nursing/bottles of pumped milk. She is 8 months old!

D poops every other day or so. I definitely worry sometimes, though, that he's constipated, cuz he sometimes seems like he's working really hard but when I change his diaper there's nothing there. We've upped his fiber/greens and that seems to at least help the consistency of his poops and he doesn't seem to be working so hard, but it's not increased the frequency at all.
ETA: He's 11.5 months.

From 6 months on when we started solids LO goes 2-3 times a day. He went through a couple of weeks where he only went every 4 or 5 days, only in the car and always a blow out but he worked it out himself.

R goes every morning like 10-20 mins after her bottle. Then sometimes in the afternoon.

For the first couple months of solids, LO was only pooping ever few days and it seemed to be a tough job. After a couple months, he's going regularly - once a day on average, but sometimes 2-3 x a day.

Mine just started solids last month (along with the same amount of nursing/breast milk bottles each day). She was going once a day but it seems to be changing to once every other day. It's getting messy so I hope this changes soon! I feel like I am giving her enough high fiber food, but maybe I need to do more.

I had a week or so that LO didn't poop. The DR said BF babies occasionally do that. We are not on solids yet, so I'm not sure if it's also normal with food.

DS has always been irregular, even before solids. He wasn't really constipated but has just always gone typically 3-4 days between poops. Now we've been on solids for about 6 weeks and it's still the same. I give him a little pear juice every other day and avoid binding foods like bananas and rice.

No poop for a week? ! DD poops 2-6 a day... (sometimes little ones sometimes 2 big ones... just depends).

At 16 months, LO poops about twice a day. I always worry about him not pooping, but he's in love with applesauce lately, so it's been less of a worry.

When we first started solids she wasn't so regular. She'd go once or twice a week. She was very considerate and did it on garbage days.

@Greentea: 10 days!
She seems extra fussy today. I will bicycle her legs and give her some diluted juice later.

@autumnlove: You can also find a youtube video on how to do stomach massages that help! When Xander was constipated (or I was afraid he was because he hadn't gone in 3-4 days), I gave him diluted apple juice, fed him some pears, and did a tummy massage, and then he had a massive blow out later and I was so relieved!!

@Adira: good idea, thanks! I actually want a massive blow out...hahha!

LO's 18 months and if she eats a lot, she poops 3x a day. Have you tried feeding your LO pears? Pears always worked for DD.

LO had been having trouble with this as his solids are increasing. now we just have pureed prunes once a day and he's been feeling (and going) much better!

Anna goes once every couple days now. She's 9 months on Wed
(when did that happen??lol )
She eats baby food and tries pretty much anything we are eating.

Sadie's almost 11 months, and since starting solids, she poops every time she eats. She was a regular once-a-day pooper, but now she's going 3-5x per day. And they stink. It's awful.
