What to feed a 1 month old baby for constipation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Define constipation: Your typical breast fed baby can have a little poo smear every feeding or one giant blowout every 7-10 days. Bottle fed go daily. If soft, i don't consider it constipation. Wetting every 6 hours or more & feeding vigorously are signs of good basic health. All babies pull legs arms in when fussing as a reflex.Grunting is normal, they have no social graces.
