constipation babies prune juice
how to help a baby with constipation?
ok so my son has just recently started on solids, and latley he has trouble going to the bathroom,he can go once a day but it takes him a while and sometimes he gets upset from trying to hard, anything other than prune juice that will help him?
My 8mo daughter just got over her constipation and it was such an upsetting time for us both, so my heart is with you.
Make sure he has lots of apples, pears etc in his diet. My daughter loved bananas, rice cakes and carrots which all block you up and that makes it much worse, so steer clear of those for a while. Also lots of water can help lubricate the digestive tract.
Diaper-free time and tummy massages are a good way to loosen the stools too. Always massage on the tummy in a clockwise direction and if he’s upset or in pain, stop.
If he gets to the point where he’s getting bright red and crying when he tries to poop, or his bottom has any signs of blood, get him a suppository and liquid laxative drops from the pharmacy.
All the best!
What the fudge is this??? EWWWW
