Is anyone else's baby having a hard time digesting solids? My son strains to poop every day and he will frequently most days but they are little balls. I cut out banana even though it's his favorite and have tried to avoid grains other than oatmeal. He's mostly just eating fruit and veggie purées (homemade) but it's not getting any better. I've read that pears and plums help so I try to incorporate those in his diet but it seems like he struggles no matter what! Still 3 weeks till our next Drs apt. Just wondering if this is fairly normal? Feel bad for the little guy!!
Re: Constipation
ETA: Also drinking water also helps with bowel movements!
It's hard seeing your baby uncomfortable . Ask your pediatrician for recommendations and dosage before giving your baby any stool softener. You don't have to wait for an appointment. You can just call their office.
