Does anyone know any remedies (preferable natural) that can help my baby go to the bathroom?
have you tried prune juice? it worked like a charm for mine, even if you can only get a couple of ounces down. Also I have heard that you can put dried fennel into their bottle (fennel is a vegetable & they sell it dried at most natural food stores)
hope this helps!
Prune Juice. Give it in her formula or dilute it with water or just put some in a syringe. That has been the best trick for us. Our pediatrician, Dr. Katz, recommended that for us. Hoppe that helps. T.---mother of a 7 month old girl
My baby who is now 19 months still suffers from having bowel movements. However, when he was a baby, my Dr told me to get pedialite and give to him and it helped him have bowel movements. Now that he is older, he has to take miralax which is now over the counter but is a god sent !!!!
Prunes have always worked for us...good luck!
Try Sweet Potatoes, my 8 month old son eats mostly finger foods now but we still keep sweet potato 3rd foods around just for this very issue.
Try baby food prunes. You can also give him some pedialyte.
We do 1/4 prune, 1/4 apple juice, and 1/4 water. He drinks it like apple juice and water!! Or the Dr told us to give him 0.8ml on the dropper of mylicon every time he ate. Mine get clogged easy. We do the prune mixture and that seems to work!! Good Luck, had this problem with both of mine!! Its not fun.
