Does baby cereal cause constipation?

Maybe: Not if you are asking for a baby or for yourself. In general, when anyone has constipation, it could be because a certain food has affected the gut. It helps to change things around, maybe another type of cereal. Whenever constipation exists, it should be immediately addressed as you are doing! try probiotics if the constipation persists despite changing the diet.

Baby cereal constipa: Baby cereal can cause constipation in soem babies. The iron content ro the rice int he cereal is usually the culprit. It helps to put some baby fruit like apple sauce or pears in the cereal to give some fiber and water content to it. If it persists change to oatmeal or mixed cereal.
