What can i do for my 9week old baby whos constipayed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probiotics: Early nutrition is vital for life-long gut health and immune system function. A vaginal birth and breast feeding start the gut with normal flora which balance and educate the immune system. Use of antibiotics and formula destroy normal flora and lead to long-term health problems. Start a 5 billion cfu dose probiotic with mutiple strains and use daily! food allergens are an issue - milk is common.
