Karo Syrup

Has anyone used Karo Syrup mixed with water to get their LO to poop? I called the pedi this morning and the suggested trying that. Anyone have any experience with it. Just wondering if it will actually work. Poor little girl is in so much discomfort and I'm already giving her gas drops at every feeding:(

Our pedi recommeded it for LO. We add 1tsp to 1 bottle of breastmilk every day. He was only pooping like every 7-10 days. He never seemed in any discomfort but we do it anyways. It has helped a little, but not much. Dr. said it is supposed to make them regular. Had a visit with the pedi yesterday and after telling her we had been doing it, and it wasnt helping much...she told us to go ahead and give like 1 1/2 ounces of apple or prune juice diluted with water and that will get them going quickly if they seem in any discomfort.
I would try to karo syrup (and our pedi said to do dark karo) and if that helps great! If not i would try to juice...and that should be instant relief for her.
GOODLUCK!
