This might be a silly question but where can I buy prune juice for babies in Canada? Also, is their different types of prune juices such as for adults and babies? My 5.5 month old poops almost everyday but hard poop, so it’s a sign of constipation, I have talked to his doctor but I wanted to try the prune juice. Thanks

https://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/constip.htm https://kidspluspgh.com/doctors-notes/constipation-in-infants-2/ “For babies like yours who are already on solids, you can increase fiber-rich foods such as prunes, peas, plums, pears, peaches, beans, and whole-grain cereals. Avoid applesauce, bananas, and carrots, which can be binding. You can also offer a daily serving of fruit juice, such as grape, cherry, or prune.”

Prune juice may alleviate constipation temporarily, but its best to get to the root of the problem
Sara··
Due to solids
Lanie Jay··
stop them then. Baby's body isn't ready.
Sara··
who are you to tell me to stop them, my doctor is aware of what’s going on!! Get lost lady

Your welcome usually it’s at the bottom under the jarred food 🙂
Sara··
Awesome I’ll check it out

So I found “apple prune” juice but it has sugar, it’s not unsweetened.. is that safe ?
Sarah·
I gave my daughter prunes almost every day for months to keep her moving. I don’t anymore and she’s totally fine.

@sms123, I just boiled like 8 or so prunes (or however many you want) in water - not even to cover them- for about 10-15 minutes until they were pretty soft. Then I use my hand blender and just blend them up. Honestly you can’t mess it up. And you can add more water if they aren’t runny enough etc...it’s just trial and error and super easy.
I would store any extra in the fridge for up to a few days. I usually didn’t make huge batches but I bet you could freeze it! Even in ice cube trays and just pop one out as you needed it.
Sara··
oh ok. And how did you serve it?
Sarah··
I spoon fed it to her when she was younger but now she’s older so I don’t stew them and I just cut them into manageable pieces and she loves them.
Sara·
Thats awesome. Hope it works on my little one. How do you give it to her?

You can get baby food pouches that are quinoa prune and apple mixed. I think they're from no frills/super store. My daughter had a lot of poop problems once she started solids
Sara··
What would it look like ?
......··
we still give them to her sometimes. It says 8+ months, but I'd just give him a tiny bit to see how he handles it. Obviously use your best judgement 😁
Sara··
oh I’ve seen those. Thanks
Sara·
Ohh so you fed it, I thought it was mixed with water, such as juice
Sarah··
They sell those pouches with just prunes as well. The age is 6+ months on those.

We bought 100% apple juice and that seemed to help. Check with your doctor first of course. Better yet though, I steam apples in the instant pot and puree them (nothing added) and give baby apple puree after every meal or as a snack. Works for us. I think if they are constipated they need more liquid or fiber in their diet 😊

You can also handmake Apple juice so it’s less sugar and healthier
