A member asked:
My son is a month old & he's constipated, is it too early to give him water or prune juice?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not early for water: Bottled water, but early for prune juice, if he is breastfed he is likely to be constipated, try to measure his temperature re tally, that at times stimulates the rectum and let them pass stools, good luck
