A member asked:
My daughter is 15 weeks old and is on formula. stopped breastfeeding bcos shes lactose intolerant. she has constipation, is it wrong to give water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not unusual: A breast fed baby will poop a little smear every feed or fill a diaper once a week. Formula feeds can trigger some variation. If it is not rabbit pellets or hard it is not constipation. An ounce of full strength prune juice given spaced out up to 3X/d can loosen a kid within 3 days.
