Does prune juice really work for pooping?

I mixed 1 oz of prune juice and 1 oz of water.  DS was like WTF is this and gagged.  I am going to add more water.  He hasnt pooped in about 4 days.  Doc said to try prune juice, but does it really work?  That stuff is disgusting!

    Yes it really works.  Apple juice is also good.

    Gerber Punre, Apple or Pear should work.  DD prefers Pear.  We use 1-2 oz, not diluted, when needed (when she hasn't pooped in like 4 days).

    Yes, it worked GREAT with DD who didn't poo in almost 2 days.  We formula feed, so we added 1oz. with 2oz. of formula, not diluted.  Good luck!  (it did take about 10 hours for her to poo....but boy did she poo...everywhere!)
