I have been feeding my 8 1/2 month old raisins and he loves them.. only thing is that when he poops, I can see all the raisins he ate- (gross I know) just now there were litteraly probably 60 raisins in there.. is this normal or is his body not digesting them or whats up??

brookeamber - 967 days ago they actually help him go poop-- when he is constipated, I give him raisins and within an hour he fills his diaper

nutnut - 967 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) raisins are also linked to cavities in children. not that you shouldnt give them raisins at all but in moderation just like anything else. my daughter loved them and yes they came out whole in her poop, so i just had to limit them. she obviously wasnt chewing them enough lol its pretty gross like corn LOL

brookeamber - 967 days ago oh, and I just read online that they are a choking hazard-- but I only give him the littest ones in the box and throw the medium and big ones away.
