I need some advice moms

Buy Gerber's stage 1 purnes, my daughter had the same problem and it worked right away. Stock up on them so you have them if she gets constipated again. I would mix the purnes in with another fruit or veggie though I would recommend giving her half of the purnes since she is 4 1/2 months. Also I would give her juice diluted with water. These two things helped. Hope I could be of some help to you.

firstly you were not supposed to give out side food untill he is min 6 mths old.. after that you can introduce only home made food.. nothing like packet food for childrens.. they contians pesticides and preservatives.. which is harmful for small kid.. whatever m telling u is as per UNICEF guidelines... and i strongly agree with their guides..

old wives tales would tell you karo. tablespoon in warm water and poop, poop, poop!!

i work in a hospital setting and the rule of thumb tends to be - try not to introduce foods to your baby before 6 months old. the reason some pediatricians say that is because a common side effect is constipation. every little one is different and some are ready to take on foods earlier than others. epecially if they already have some teeth or the formula is just not enough for them. have you tried pedialite? of course nothing can beat prune juice. if that doesn't help then medical intervention might be needed to make sure nothing is compacted in her little bowles.

Give her prunes and diluted apple juice. It really works it worked for my grandaughter. God Bless

give it a laxa tive.

add a little dark karo syrup to your baby's rice cereal. I was told this by my peditrician and many older mommas' along with water, and prune juice.

Give her some diluted prune juice or put about a teaspoon of dark Karo syrup in some water or her milk. My kids all got constipated like that when they started baby food. These tips are from their pediatrician.

Prune juice or water w/ a little prune juice in it.

Pureed pear. Pear juice is good too, but the puree is better, works everytime. If it ends up being too strong, mix it with baby cereal.

When my sons would have this problem I would give them 2 oz. of Gerber Apple Prune juice. It worked like a charm every time. Hope this helps.

I really dissagree with all the comments about waiting until a baby is 6 months to start solids..... All babies are different and develop differently, my son had digestive problems with milk and his pediatrician told me to start him on rice cereal at 1 month, i had to mix it with baby water though because he threw up any milk, his ped. switched his formula atleast 20 times, and he would projectile vomit with every single one. My son also started baby food at 3 months

At that age she should only be getting formula. Her little digestive system cannot handle solids until she is at least 6 months. Take her off solids for now. She is showing signs of not being ready by being constipated.

I would say give her some water to drink while she's eating and maybe mix in some prunes with whatever you're feeding her. My son had constipation problems at that age really bad, it was from formula, he had to be on soy.

Try to give water to her. Introduce fruit juices also along with the food. If it persists try to give raisins soaked in water over 5 hours.

give her more water plum baby food with every meal i did with my kids (3)

Hi hope this works for you ,cause not all babies are alike.I used to do it for my baby.Add water to the food to make it a little lighter.Give her together with orange juice.It worked for me.

what I did when that happened to my daughter was I gave her water and Gerber Stage 1 prunes. That really helped and u should also introduce some of the fruit juices as well especially apple juice. All those things worked great for me. The doctored also suggested putting her in the tub cuz that usually works but that didn't work for me but it may work for you. Good luck.
