  • Tummy massage, bicycle legs, tummy time, infants friend.


  • Prune juice or go to pharmacist and you can get syrup which will help Bub open Bowles.


  • I tried chia seeds and it did the trick


  • Latulose is a constipation medicine brought over the counter Thant is safe to use with all ages, I used it for my son at 3 months old and only had to use it the once.


  • Good luck, plenty of water!


  • We diluted prune juice but had little success, a little brown sugar in warm water worked for us.


  • Give him a little honey on his water. Hope it can help.


  • Make sure he has more than enough water!


  • roll his legs up in circular motion to get his bowels functioning properly


  • I hope you were successful!


  • there are some good comments here


  • ask a doctor and they will help


  • we got Actilax from the chemist and gave her more water ( had to put some formula in it too otherwise she would look at me as if to say what the hell is this crap? )


  • depending on age, try a little watered down prune juice, works wonders.


  • depends on age but water – if feeding solids find fibrous meals to feed and water


  • Bicycle legs and plenty of fluids. If older you could try prunes.


  • wholegrains and blueberries worked for my bub.


  • I hope all is well 🙂


  • Wondering too if you could try so e prune juice? Stewed apricots (not too many) and pears should also help 🙂


  • More fruit and veg puree has worked for our 9 month old, also cutting out bread and flour products. Good luck!
