My baby (6 months) has not had a bowel movement in over 7 days.

It is common for young children to experience constipation, especially if their diet has changed. It is important to ensure they stay hydrated and consider introducing fiber-rich foods like pureed pears or prunes. There are pharmacy options available to soften stools, such as glycerin suppositories for children. A laxative like PEG-based laxatives may also be helpful in preventing the issue from persisting. It is recommended to consult a healthcare provider if the child continues to experience discomfort or if the treatments do not provide relief.
