We called triage and they advised not to give orange juice as it's a very old recommendation. For us it's helped bathing her, and also the time passing. It looks like she didn't know how to do it properly, and now she can do it once a day or every 2 days
Try with a different milk we are on cow and hate colic and constipation, we got prescribed laxatives and found they worked within 4 hours! We only give her them when she needs them not with every feed and please please please don’t give him water! This will make him more full and skip feeds xxx
@Amy this isn’t recommended as water can make them full which can cause them to skip feeds xx
Reflexology - Sounds ridiculous but it worked every time for us, give “baby foot massage for constipation” a google
@Rebecca you don’t give them the water you add a tiny bit to their bottle
So went back to doctors and he is now back on the cow&gate milk and pooing once or twice a day again xx
How old is he? My son had constipation at around 2 months old and I got told a little bit of orange juice in water would be fine and honestly it worked so good. Just give him the normal amount he would have milk say if he takes a 2oz bottle put 2oz of water in his bottle with a tiny bit of orange juice. If he’s older he can have orange juice on its own. I found that bicycle legs never really worked for my son as I know some people suggest that
