A member asked:
6months old baby gal just started eating about a week ago and is constipated. i'm giving her warm water to drink but it's not helping. what can i use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Apple or prune juice: Your baby should be eating 3 meals and 2 snacks daily and drinking about 700ml of formula daily (given after the food). For constipation give 200ml of apple or prune juice daily (not applesauce or whole prunes). Your baby does not need plain water.
