Infant constipation

*me as a butterfly* Asked by chynawhite 10 months ago, 10 answers.

My 1 year old daughter has been really constipated for the last 2 weeks. I called the doctor and she told me to give her me water anything that has a lot of protein in it, but it seems like nothing is working. Does anybody have any ideas on how to get...

her pooping right again?

Here's what we used to do for my son:

1 Teaspoon prune juice mixed with some water in a bottle - worked everytime

You can take a cotton swab - put vasaline on the end of it - and massage their anus - sometimes babies have a hard time being able to push it out by themselves and you have to help them.

Take the bottoms of their feet - and have them push your hands with their feet - this causes them to strain and push - and can help them loosen their bowels up and go to the bathroom.

Oh yes I forgot that one - Caro Syrup - the dark one. You can put a teaspoon in with her milk.

You do not have to go to the hospital for infant constipation or get medicine. There are tricks that you can use.

!!!my daughter suffered from constipation since she was born and she is now one year old. I finally found something that worked!!! every morning I give her two pieces of rye toast with a little buttter. I take the crust off of it and rip it into small pieces. she loves it and it helps her. also every day I give her a 8 ounce bottle half water and half graduates mixed fruit juice these two things put into her diet have been working great. she doesnt sturggle anymore and goes normally finally!!!

For constipation there is the p diet
Prunes, Prune juice, Pears, Plumbs, Peaches, Pineapple (better than prunes!), and Peas
all great for most cases.

(By The way, for diarrhoea, there is the BRAT diet -
Banana, Rice, Apple, Toast which all help to stop diarrhoea - so avoid those when your child is constipated too.)

Best tip I was ever given, the P diet and the BRAT diet.
