Ds2 was born last monday night and had 2 meconium poos that night with no problems but hasnt pooed at all since. My milk was pretty slow getting going, I would say by friday evening I had plenty and he slept better and had some awake alert times which he hadnt till then, it had all been desperate feeding and crying with the occassional hours sleep in between. Since saturday afternoon/evening he's been weeing fine (before that was orange) but he's still not had a poo and since last night is crying much more and has tummy ache alot. Ive tried giving him some water as the mws suggested but he really hates it and spits most of it out and then screams an gets really upset. What else can I do? I dont really want to give him formula.
I bf my other 2 dc and my milk was slow coming in with both of them but never had this problem. Also ds1 used to go over 2 weeks sometimes without a poo but not when he was this tiny.
