Re: What do you give LO for constipation?

  • My daughter is 6 weeks old. And our pedi told us to give her half and ounce of apple juice mixed with half and ounce of water. And to do it between feedings. She said we could give it to her all at once or give her half in the morning and half in the evening.

  • Our pedi also recommended mixing apple juice and water 1/2 and 1/2.  Only give 1-2 oz total (1/2 - 1 oz apple juice), any more and your LO may get the runs.

  • Apple/Pear juice with water as pp's have said... but this young, 1-2oz of just plain water used to work wonders for DD. GL!

  • Our pedi recommended prune juice (1 oz) mixed with water.  It has been working great!
