Babies: 0 - 3 Months

HELP-> Baby with hard poo!

LO has pooped twice today and both have been hard. Any suggestions on how to help?

TIA

Re: HELP-> Baby with hard poo!

  • Call pedi?

    Ours said to put 1 oz applejuice in a bottle once a day until it helps, but it's not helping and it's been 4 days.

    Next step is trying prune juice instead of apple.

    I don't know what we will try after that, I'm hoping the prune will work!

  • Was it hard hard? My LO's poops are now like peanut butter. Harder than before, but not hard hard. This is normal. If it's harder than that I would prob call the pedi?
  • Call your pedi...but mine suggests to put a half teaspoon of karo syrup! i just did it for my 1 week old child and it worked good!
  • sorry...add it to your bottle! hehe
  • Call pedi, but mine recommended one baby-spoonful of prunes (baby food) for hard poo or constipation. It worked.
