Constipated little Boo, tried everything, HELP!!!

[kalouk]

Hi, my cousin just had a baby who gets constipated and her HV told her to put some Vaseline on LO bottom ( Use your imagination as I can't think of a nice way to put it LOL) and to gently massage the area she had really quick results but she warned to have a towel ready LOL x

^^ I've heard that one. Or put pure orange juice around their bottom (think that be some old wives tale though!) I agree with massaging, it helps loosen their bowels

Any poos yet?

I did the pears and tummy massage and it worked for us! How is Daisy?

My two year old use to be consipated what seemed like every other week and we tried everything. We found that to get her over the consipation first we stewed or baked fresh apples and that always helped. Apple, pear, or prune jucie and that bicycle movement with her legs helped also. Now to keep her regular we give her a fiberone yogurt or activia everyday, it's a healthy and safe way to keep them regular, and it works like magic for my kiddo! Just thought I would share!
