Question Constipated for how long before giving pumpkin?

Princess usually poops any where from 2-4 times a day, and always has. Today she did not poop, but I did find two really small pieces on two separate occasions in the bathroom where she goes.

My first thought is I hope she didn't eat it! Could she develop that habit for the first time at almost a year and a half?

I gave her a hygiene trim but before that I don't think her hair would be enough to cause a problem.

I know I can give her some pumpkin but should I wait until she doesn't go tomorrow or give it in the a.m.? I don't want it to go to the other extreme & give her diarrhea if she's not too constipated. Is it ok for her to skip a day or two, though she never has? She otherwise seems very healthy, active, eating, drinking & no new foods.

Thanks in advance.
