Babies: 6 - 9 Months

where do you get your prune juice?

LO has been a bit constipated lately. We started solid foods and I think she's pretty sensitive to bananas and sweet potatoes (and she ate a lot of both since our allergist asked that we wait 5-7 days before introducing new foods). We're cutting back on those and eating more pears which she really, really likes, but the pedi said we could try some prune juice too. Only issue is I can't find it (at least ones specifically for babies). I've tried our local Harris Teeter and even BRU. Going to try Walmart on the way home, but wondering where anyone else has gotten theirs. I know Gerber makes an apple/prune juice mix, so I'll try and look for that. Does anyone use just plain ol' prune juice? I just don't want to give her anything that has crazy amounts of sugar. I'd give her prune puree, but we're BLW, so she hasn't been spoon fed at all. I guess I could give it a shot.

TIA!

  • I just used regular prune juice

  • Organic prune juice from the health food store - no added sugar. 1 oz juice + 1 oz water really helps constipation when feeding along with solids.
