I need help Please my 3weeks old baby stretches a lot, and farts and when she stretches her face becomes red. I don't know what to use to make her stop stretching so she can sleep well.
Please I need a recommendation of drugs.
Secondly, she doesn't poop regularly, is it normal for a newborn?

Nothing to worry about ma, It is normal for babies on exclusive breastfeeding not to poo every day .....even up to 2 weeks.
On farting, Newborn digestive systems are immature, so they produce a lot of gas, and this is normal. Infants also take in a lot of air while feeding and crying, which produces more gas
