My girlfriend's sister is currently staying with us with her 6 month old baby.
She says after a certain vaccination (it was in German so I'm not sure exactly which one..... "Red' something or other I think...).... She said after this vaccination the baby went from regular daily bowel movements to none for 5 days!!! And the doctor said it would be normal for no bowel movement for up to 10 days!!
And ever since this particular vaccination the baby now only has a bowel movement every 2-3 days.
It might be worth adding that the baby looks incredibly swollen and overweight for a 6 month old and the skin is so tight, almost like edema. According to the parents though his weight is correct for his age.
1 bowel movement every 3 days for a baby seems crazy to me, surely its absolutely normal and healthy for babies to have several bowel movements every day. For adults of course it's a sign of health to have at least one but ideally several per day.
both parents have had the Pfizer double shot and the mother is still breast feeding so I wonder if that also has something to do with it...
