Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Mild Jaundice In Newborn
My baby is just 10 days old. My wife breastfeeds her and add formula as supplement since she s doesn t seem to be full. The problem is, she has not been passing motion for the past 2 days. She s also having mild jaundice (SB reading 195 on her 7th day) and sleeps a lot. I ve scheduled to take her to see the pediatrician on Saturday. In the mean time, what can I do?

Good evening..!!
Infants may not pass stools for even 2 weeks also sometimes.
Its absolutely normal. Nothing to worry.
Continue breast feeding and keep your baby warm.
Regarding jaundice, consult your doctor for proper evaluation and management.
Thank you have a nice day...!!
