A 1-month-old baby does not need help — in fact, most babies this age poop several times daily. If your baby seems comfortable, has a soft stomach, and can pass gas, leave them as is.
If baby is straining, has a bloated stomach, or hasn't had a bowel movement for more than 24 hours, the only method you can try is bicycle leg movements: Place baby on their back and gently pedal their legs as if riding a bike. You can also do gentle clockwise massage on the abdomen.
Babies should never have cotton swabs, probes, thermometers, olive oil, or any substance or stool softener applied — the intestinal lining at this age is very delicate and even minor irritation can cause serious problems.
If baby hasn't pooped for more than 48 hours, spitting up accompanies it, stomach is tense or rigid, or when stool does come it is very hard/dry (abnormal at this age when normal stool should be runny mustard-yellow), consult your pediatrician.
