So my poor baby boy has been extremely constipated ever since we started him in whole milk. I have to help him poop basically and then there's blood. I gave him some prunes a little bit ago and that helped a lot. I'm just wondering if there's something else I can do to prevent constipation. Also, he was on similac alimentum for the first 10 months of his life due to a milk protein allergy. We switched him back to regular similac with no problems. But could the constipation be because he's not tolerating the milk?

@virgosweetness, did you try regular similac after some time? Because we did around 10 months and he did fine with it..

@berrongc I think it's supposed to help their tummy's to make the transition easier also. But if you've already done that. Have you tried any sort of natural constipation medicine? Like constipation ease.

@berrongc mm I dont think they are the same. I think you'd be safe to use coconut while being allergic to nuts but ask your Dr to be sure

@rikki.ferguson, isn't that just to wean them off the formula though? We've already done that lol

@berrongc I see. Maybe coconut milk. A lot of moms use it

@jloop7509, unfortunately we can't do any nuts until we see an allergist. We're still waiting to get a call from them

@berrongc I have heard of some pediatricians having you do half and half.

Could be. You can try other milks like almond or coconut milk and see if that's easier

so my husband wants to feed are baby but the thing is that I will be breastfeeding so idk how it would work. he was thinking that when he wants to feed him he would give him formula but I just want my baby to have breast milk. so then he said why don't you pump your milk out and I'll feed it to him and i thought that would be the best thing but then I'm scared that my baby will get use to the bottle. I need help idk what to do because my husband really wants to feed him :/ and we need to come up with something before are baby is here. can anyone help??

@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer. My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk outside without this information. Children of color are being targeted and killed too. It’s not just adults. I let my son know we treat everyone equally and with respect. I let him know that we love everyone for their differences. In every aspect. Color, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual preference we love everyone.
