Its okay for a breastfed baby not to poop for at least 2 weeks, my daughter didn’t poop for 10 days and of course I called the doc. he said to give her more time, a warm bath, and some juice..I was told that 1 oz of juice for every month your baby is is perfectly fine…also, you can use an anal thermometer dipped in Vaseline to stimulate the sphincter muscle and get the baby to poop…I was also told to give a baby under 6 months only HALF a suppository…so sounds like you’re doing fine!
