I started giving my baby cereal in his milk and he hadn't pooped in 3 days. I was changing his diaper and I notice he had a really hard price of poop sticking out. I pushed his leg towards his stomic and put my fingers on with side of his behind hole and put a little pressure. I could feel how hard it felt under the skin so for the next 10 minutes I alternated between pushing and using my finger to pull the poop out. It was horrible. He had some much in him it broke my heart to think that he was probably in pain and I didn't know it. I hope I did the right thing.
@djcjej okay thank u. I was told by a lot of the older wemon in my family to give him kerol syrup. What is your thoughs on that
My son was 3 almost 4 months when the pediatrician said to give it to him. Just as needed for that time. Not everyday. After 5 days of no poop I called because that wasn't like him and she recommended 2 ounces of prune juice.
@djcjej he is only 4 month is it okay to give him juice this early
You could also give him prune juice. We had to when my son was constipated and the pediatrician said 2 ounces was good. It worked for him.
Is it rice cereal or oatmeal. Ride can cause constipation. That's what my son's pediatrician told us so we bought the baby oatmeal cereal.
Cereal is the only way my son will take a bottle.......
@ashleydunn i was adding oat meal cereal. And if I don't he spits up really bad. It some reason makes him not spit up
My daughter struggled with constipation. We fed her Prunes and it took care of it. We still use it too. I always watch her bowel movements and if it is more then 3 days I give them to her. If her poop seems large I give them as well
My doctor told me not to use baby Cearel. Said the digestive system doesn't have enzymes to break it down. She said at just do pureed food no soo er than 4 months.
This happened to my son when I started giving him regular milk. His doctor told me it was normal for him to get constipated, his body will get used to it. If you give formula you can fix the formula with regular milk
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
son getting out of car seat
So a couple days ago my son started getting himself out of his car seat while we are on the road. He will be 2 years old May 27th. He pushes the chest clip all the way down and pulls his arms and shoulders out of the straps but is still buckled at the waist. Today he did it 4 times, we had to pull over every time. What do you guys do when they start doing this? My Britax came with these long rubber strap covers but I took them off a while ago when he was to small f...
My poor son has been constipated for days and today he finally pooped but it was hard and he cried trying push it out. I helped him by gently massaging his belly and putting his legs up by his belly but what can I do to prevent this? He's been on baby food and formula. He never had a problem with this formula. It was hard watching him in pain! 😨😨
so my son has been constipated for a few weeks if he does poop its black an hard now last night he stayed up all night screaming because it hurts him to push .. I held his legs like a frog then when he pushed like water came out along with a string of blood on his butt hole his dr isn't taking my calls what do I do? he also has a umbilical cord hernia could this harm that?

Caellum Shain, born June 2nd at 2:23 PM at 37+4. He's perfect, 6 lb 15 oz and 20 inches. He's been such a good baby, lots of sleeping and he has latched on quite a few times and sucked but he doesn't stay on long lol. Hoping he picks it up soon. It was a long labor, about 24 hours. He was born with the assistance of a vacuum because he did not want to come on his own, he had his head turned a way that no matter how much I pushed he would not get free. One push push with the vacuum and he was alm...
I have heard of it but I just went with what the pediatrician said because I wasn't sure.
