My 2 month old baby has chronic constipation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Constipation ?: A 2 mo that is breast fed can have a stool smear every feed or a diaper full once a week. If it is soft it is not constipation. I never see BF kids with true constipation. A formula fed baby that is passing hard rocks can be given an ounce of full strength prune juice 1-3X/day to get them moving. It takes 2-4 days for it to work.
