See Below: I normally suggest prune juice or pear juice. At 4 months of age, i would give your child 4 ounces a day.

Karo=OK Juices easy: I generally go to full strength apple or prune juice at ounce doses 1-3xdaily as a first line for dry poo. Baby juice is too dilute to work. Karo is ok, not fully absorbed like food & works like Metamucil in some kids. If I use it I do so as a teaspoon full to 1-2 bottles/day.
