constipation, natural remedy

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Hello,

We started oatmeal at 4 months, and it's been going well. So, a few weeks in and just over the last 3 days she has not had a bowel movement. The last two nights she has had crying episodes before bed reminiscent of a baby who is uncomfortable. We are considering introducing prunes, since we were going to start introducing something soon anyway. Has anyone else done this to help with regularity when starting solids? Thanks in advance.

    DS had a horrible time with cereal. It constipated him so bad, so we just skipped it when we officially started cereal. If it's been a few days and he hasn't pooped, I feed him pears or prunes, and he goes right away. You can do juice too, just dilute it.

    If you want, you can do two ounces of water in a bottle for one teaspoon if brown sugar and that helps relieve constipation too. My pedi just told me this a few weeks ago.
