Pear juice for pooping

Has anyone used pear juice to help their baby poop?  If so did you mix it with formula or just give it to you DC staright and did you give an ounce?

Re: Pear juice for pooping

  • We used an ounce of prune juice.  My pedi said that pears only help with constipation if you eat the skin, so I am not sure pear juice would help.

  • Thanks, Did you mix the prune juice with the formula?

  • We never had the problem with constipation till DD started cereal - and we'd mix about an ounce of pear juice with cereal.

    But I do guarantee pear juice does work - there must be something in there other than the skin. 

    Good Luck!

  • 1/2 pear juice 1/2 water and it works every time!

  • We used an ounce straight up.  We were also told we could use prune or apple as well
  • Our pedi suggests pear or prune juice (it was before she was on solids, so juice was suggested).  She said prune is best, but sometimes they won't take it, so try and disguise it with pear or just do pear.  We did pear (1 oz) and had nothing, so a few hours later, per pedi, we did 2 oz prune.  Umm, wow!
