Infant Didn’t Poop Today

“My baby is two-months-old and is breast-fed exclusively. Although she has had many wet diapers in the last 24 hours (and is feeding very well) she has not pooped in 24hrs. What does this mean and what do I do?”

Babies will sometimes skip a day like this. Often, near this age, many babies make a transition from several poops a day to just one per day or even one every few days. I wouldn’t worry about a baby that usually goes once a day, but then skips a day every once in a while – as long as the poops are their usual runny consistency.
