Re: constipation and corn syrup

  • I would ask your doctor.

  • I did 1 tsp in a 4 oz bottle. Worked, just made the poop extra stinky.

  • Hmmmm....would not advise without doctor's consent
  • My kid pooped like 20 times today.  I envy a little constipation at this point.  =)
  • Thanks, I was waiting for the pedi on call to call me back. Took them two hours to call back! LO was so uncomfortable! My dad advised me to do a teaspoon in his bottle. He said for immediate help, take his temp rectally. Worked like a charm! Poooooop poop poop poop! Pedi finally called back and said the corn syrup would've been her suggestion, and that the thermometer trick was absolutely fine as well.
