What can I do to help him poo??
He has not done a poo for over 24h now and he obviously really needs to go - his tummy is rock hard and he is straining and crying loads.
Have tried a bit of cooled boiled water after his feed. Have tried a tummy massage and cycling his legs. To no avail.
Have read some stuff online suggesting a bit of brown sugar in his bottle might help but not sure how much to give.
Has anyone got any suggestions??
