A member asked:

My 2 month old baby has acid reflux and is using novalac ar but causes severe constipation stools is extremely hard and poos everyday by cries throughout the process what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Prune juice: I like using full strength prune juice 1-2 oz given spaced out 1-3X/day. This works like a osmotic laxative because baby doesn't absorb all the fruit sugar. It usually loosens them within 3 days at which point you can increase or decrease amount or frequency as you need.
