mamacakes (1010.7 days ago) prune juice or prune baby food...works like a charm
arkansastechmommy (1010.7 days ago) I was told to cut a tiny slice out of a bar of soap I`d say about the size of your pinky nail, and about as thick as a penny. Stick it right inside their little booty, and that will make them go. I was told this by an older person, they said it was an `old time` remedy for constipation. I have never tryed it, but I`ve been told by many it works wonders. It sounds crazy, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
jacobb-n-jordans-mommy (1010.7 days ago) This sounds gross but I have to do it with Jakey when hes constipated becasue his tummy cant handle apple juice, I lay him on the changing table and vigorously rub his anus with a wipie keeping his legs elevated, I dont rub hard with a little pressure and kinda fast, and be ready to catch anything that comes out it always works. This is gonna sound silly but thats exactly what they do for baby kittens/ puppies that has a mother that passed before they can go on their own because in orfer for them to go the mother has to lick them to stimulate. sorry about the long post but I think this method is much better for me and his tummy.
butterblocksmom (1010.7 days ago) Oh yes, and if she is eating solids, good ole prunes work wonders (but no more than once a day as she`ll end up really miserable if she gets the runs after a day or two of this!)
butterblocksmom (1010.7 days ago) For each of her milk feeds, give her a bottle of formula or breastmilk (3 oz) with applejuice (1 oz). The natural sugars bind and cause a diarreha type of response. It will loosen the hardened stool. The tummy massage helps as well (always clockwise starting near the belly button and moving down the tract of the large intestive, massaging GENTLY! Also the bicycle movement helps.
