[|AI|]  Dear parent, your concern is right. A beast fed infant is usually not constipated in initial months. As the time passes, 1-2 months, intestinal motility decreases to a great extent, than it was as newborn. Which is normal. That's why milk stays longer in intestine and more time is there for water and nutrients absorption. Milk has very small amounts of solids, so at times it may take 2-5 days to form a sufficient mass to defecate. As long as he is not passing hard motions, you need not worry, he may pass a lot of gases which is due to high protein diet of milk. Apply small amount of Vaseline daily at anal opening so that passage of motion is smooth. You need to take balanced diet, as nutrients are provided through milk.
