Code Brown & WCM

We have been transitioning for about a week now. I have been taking it slow because when I was nursing, P would have tummy issues if I ate dairy. She had no problem when we did 25% WCM, 75% formula. However on day 3 of 50-50, she got really backed up and has been for 2 days now. I feel so badly for her as she is grunting, straining, and screaming! Has anyone else dealt with this? If so, do you have any tips? 

TIA

  • ds got back up a little at first when we started transitioning. I offered more water during the day and it seemed to clear the problem up.

  • Thanks. I should have mentioned in the original post that I'm offering as much water as she'll take and giving her prunes. Neither is working thus far :

  • Aw, poor baby. We had the opposite problem when we transitioned, but for pluggage problems I find apple juice diluted or straight usually does the trick.

  • I discussed this with our pedi at her last appointment. He said its probably from just not enough fluids. Add water, white grape and/or pineapple juice to her diet.
  • I give DS pears whenever he's backed up and it works great.
