Prunes for constipation

My LO is having a hard time pooping the last little while so I bought him some pureed prunes to try in the morning.  When you give prunes, do you make a whole meal of it or just give a couple of tablespoons along with other foods?

Thanks!

  • Thanks!  I'll start with something like that and see how it goes.

  • I give the whole jar. I give prunes about twice a week as a preventive measure.
  • my pedi says pear juice works as well... problem is i can't find it... so i used pears lol, figured they are kinda of one in the same?  

    good luck! 

  • We give a full jar of prunes (3.5 oz) mixed with lots of oatmeal and apple juice.

     The doctor gave us this idea, he calls it "poo goo" and yes, it works wonders for us.  20 minutes and we have results!
