I am a breastfeeding mother and my 15 days old daughter hasn't pooped from last 24 hours but she is being passing alot of farts for the whole day and also being crying alot due to gas issue. Does my diet has anything to do with it? What should I do to get her relieved? I have also being giving her drops for colic relief. What else should I do?

Hii
Firstly you can wait Upto 5 days for the baby to poop
So in your case that’s okay to wait for few more days.
If the baby is crying a lot due to farting / gas issue you can use colicaid drops to relieve the colicky pain which expected in this age group
