How long would you go before intervening?

I *think* Georgia's rice cereal may have backed her up a bit.  This is day 2 of no-poo.  She's a bit fussy, but I think t might be because of teeth, not the lack of poo.

She hasn't had any other "food" besides the rice cereal.  Should I just wait it out?  How long should I wait before doing something.....and what should I do considering BM & rice cereal is all she's ever had....

    I wouldn't do anything drastic, but offering 2 oz of prune juice in bottle (with our without formula/bf) will probably moving things along.

    This or apple juice. GL!

    My LO just went 4 full days!!!  And all he gets is BM.  I don't think I'd be worried yet - particularly if she's not fussing and not straining.  I'd at least give it another day - but that's just my opinion.

    My pediatrician told me that oatmeal will make babies less gassy then rice, so maybe that would be better to give her.

    Also try taking her legs and pushing them up to her stomach gently and hold for about ten seconds then release and repeat a few times.  Might get things moving for her.

    It's not quite a full tbsp of cereal, and enough B/M to makeit like thick soup consistency....and it's only once a day / every other day.....
