    How big

    Quick question, I fed my baby ball last week on Tuesday and he hasn't had a bowel movement since. It's Tuesday again, and time for another feeding. Do I need to wait until he defocates to feed him again?

    Go ahead and feed him. It's not uncommon for some bp's to have several meals between bowel movements.

    Thanks for the info. I've only had him a couple weeks, and he had a movement after every time he ate, so I got a little worried. Thanks though.
