i think my dd is constipated.  she is on day 4 of no pooping and is a little extra fussy with crazy stinky farts.  my mom suggested a suppository, but i wanted some other opinions first.

    I heard taking his rectal temperature works. Ive never been brave enough to try it.

    Watered down pear juice - check with your pedi if you are unsure.

    Have you called your pediatrician? I have always heard that you should call if it has been over 3 days. Good Luck!

    Is her stomach really hard when she is calm or resting? Babies can go several days with no poop and be fine. If she is constipated, I'd call your pedi. I know we've used a baby thermometer with vaseline before to help move things along.

    This 1oz prune juice to 1oz water, once a day.

     For minor constipation, you can add 1teaspoon of sugar once a day...but this never worked for Cat and seemed...wierd.  It was a fill in doctor that told me that.
