Constipation

How can I help my baby with constipation? She last pooped on Saturday. Plenty of pee and seems to be feeding fine (BF) and seems okay in herself.

I’ve always given my little girl cooled down boiled water and she’s pooed within an hour of consuming it. Might be worth trying her with abit in a bottle if you have one. I do this every time I feel she needs to go and it works wonders xx

@Maicey great! How much would you say is appropriate?

My GP said a freshly juiced orange. I tried about 3ml’s with my boy but I don’t think it had any effect. I might try a bit more next time.

We gave our baby 1oz cooled boiled water and had a poop explosion 45 mins later!

Also heard that boiling orange skins then giving them the water works too and to try that if the boiled water doesn’t work x

@Jess I tried this yesterday & although it didn’t happen 45 mins later, we did have success a few hours later. Thanks for the tip!

@Sophia ah brilliant, never thought I’d be thankful for a poonami but that’s motherhood 🥲

@Jess most of my conversations are about dirty nappies😂
