Guest guest Posted August 21, 2000 Report Share Posted August 21, 2000 Amy, First of all, calm down. I can hear the tension in your e-mail. Second, don't worry. Is she still having wet diapers? It is completely normal for bf babies to not poop for a few days at a time. It is a little concerning when it happens for the first time, but as long as she is still wetting diapers she is probably fine. You can call you pediatrician if you are really concerned, but it's probably nothing.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2000 Report Share Posted August 21, 2000 Don't panic, it hasn't been *that* long. However, if your baby is only 11 days old she should still be have frequent BMs. It is after about 6 weeks that they may slow down drastically. I have heard that decreased BMs will happen before decreased wet diaper count if a newborn is not getting enough to eat, although I am not sure what the range of normal would be, so I would check with the ped just to be sure. But please don't panic! She sounds fine, so if it is anything it is nothing serious.
