Define constipation : Infants that age often struggle with feeds & pooping. Their weak belly muscles often need assistance of their fussing/breathing muscles to move food along or poop. If it is soft when they go it is normal. If they pass hard rabbit pellets you can add full strength prune juice, 1 oz 1-3X/d spaced out. The sugar in this juice is not absorbed well & acts as a laxative.
