"Over the weekend, baby was constipated and fussy and mom
assumed it was her diet.  ... Mom stopped nursing for two
days (pumped and dumped) and gave formula.  Baby stooled
3-4 times a day.  Mom has started back to nursing this
am so we have yet to see what the effect will be on
stooling."

Someone else will probably mention this:  but, what is her definition of
constipation - failure to stool, or hard stools?  Until she started solids
at 6 months, my exclusively BF daughter stooled once every 4 days or so.  I
wasn't worried about it (and neither was her pedi) because it was soft and
typically BF stool.  Except that it was a HUGE amount guaranteed to soak
through her clothes.

on "those" days.)
