Hard and dry poop

Hi mummies, my child is 8 weeks old and recently she has been having bowel movements only once every 3-5 days. Sometimes I see her straining but nothing comes out. And when she really does poop, she screams and strain in much pain. She just pooped and this is her stool. Does it look like constipation? Will a GP or polyclinic doctor be able to treat her or should I go to a PD? #firsttimemom #pleasehelp
