Hi. My little boy is 6 weeks old and has always struggled with digestion. He is currently on his 3rd day without a poop and is obviously trying hard to have one. His trumps are very stinky bless him. He doesn't seem in pain but keeps straining and grizzling.

He is combination fed and we have just started using sma comfort formula as he grunts throughout the night. Nighttime being when we give formula. When he does have breast milk he has it via bottle.

Any suggestions on how I might be able to help get his bowels moving? Today he is taking well over an hour to eat 3.5 ounce whether it be ebm or ff. I'm concerned that he will end up not eating enough if this continues xx
 
Maybe try water and trying some tummy massage and bicycling his legs to get things moving?
 
I've done the bicycling thing will try the water thanks x
