Constipated daughter (not from whole milk)

Scott_Jessica1stbaby

I posted not to long ago about my soon to be 1 year old being constipated from drinking whole milk. Well my Husband and I stopped giving her whole milk and let her go back to normal. We did try again giving her whole milk just in a different format and she again became constipated, so we are officially done with milk until her 1 year appointment when we will discuss with the doctor about giving her goat's milk. It has been a week since she has had any whole milk and she is still constipated. I have tried giving her juice and some fruits and veggies. I don't understand why she is constipated. We have not done anything differently. Does anyone know what may be causing this. I assumed it was from the milk before, but now I really don't know.

@mama_kat All I have is the light karo syrup. I heard that you should use the dark syrup. Would the light syrup be as effective? I also called her Pediatrician this morning to try and reschedule her 1 year appointment to an earlier date, so that I could discuss this with them. I have not heard back from them yet.

Prune juice! It'll help until you can be seen. Also make sure she's drinking enough water. McKinley used to have trouble pooping, so we started offering her water every 20 mns or so, shed take a few sips then hand it back to us. Since then, she's been great with her poops!

And give her some probiotics!

Thank you everyone. I am just so surprised that we are having this problem. We haven't had any trouble at all until these past few weeks. I have been offering her water in a sippy and have given her juice. I guess she must need more water. She did finally go. I will keep the prune juice in mind in case we have this problem again.
