NON-RELATED/Constipation hints

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I remember someone posting awhile ago about using Karo syrup to

relieve constipation in little ones. Can anybody tell me about this

or any other helpful hints? Thanks so much! Lori

How old is the baby? On Kelsey, I would give her a

little bit of either prune or pear juice and when she

got a bit older, she liked to eat the actual prunes.

She only had one bad bout with constipation right

after she started solids but this cleared it right up.

Now, when it seems to me that she might be a little

behind on the bowel movements, I try to use fruit but

don't use bananas. They actually have a constipating

effect as does rice. If the baby is really young, I

don't know what to use. My girls never had the

problem when they were teeny infants. Hope that helps

some.

About a Tablespoon of Karo will do it. It will clean the baby out pretty good.

It is not something I am comfortable using frequently-that is just me-I don't

know if it is a problem if you do. Pears seem to be a good bland food that

helps push things on through also.

Hi Lori.

I have put corn syrup in my daughters bottles for several months now. Not

every bottle, but 2 a day. She has super hard poop. The poor thing. They

roll right off the diaper, which they shouldn't have BM's like this at

this age. She is 12 months. Yesterday was her one year check-up and the

ped told me to increase prunes and apricots. The corn syrup definitely

works though. The only negative is she is a little chunk-chunk. All that

sugar!!

Definately pick up some pitted prunes, they will do the trick!! Grace

had a bit of constipation when we started her on solids and when she

strains (soo cute - hehe) I pull out the prunes. I just squish out

the inside of the prune as the outer part is too tough for her and

break it into bits and add it to the fruit I'm serving her for lunch

and dinner.

It's no wonder they get a bit constipated really, going from a

totally liquid diet to grains etc! I soooo miss the " poopy roses "

(what I called her B/F diapers)!! Now we have to flush these

offensive things down the toilet!

I use the prune juice and add it to her bottle. Sounds gross I know

but works well. We used it in the beginning of her castings (she

couldn't bring her legs up to push with the casts on) then she

adjusted on her own. Now she started whole milk so we just add the

prune juice to 2 bottles a day.

My son had terrible constipation around the time we went to cow's

milk. I did the karo syrup, 1 tablespoon mixed with 1 ounce of warm water. We

didn't want him to get used to drinking sweetened milk and that worked but not

great. My doctor recommended Mineral oil. This worked wonders, not to sound

gross but it lubricates from the inside. You mix 1 ounce of mineral oil with 1

ounce of hershey's syrup. You must shake it vigorously to ensure that it mixes

and have the child drink it immediately. This worked great!

Hope that helps!
