I read other threads re no pooing but will ask anyway.

DS is 5 months and haven't done anything substantial in his nappy since Xmas day. Eating ok, sleeping as usual, wet nappies. Took him to HV and was advised to take him to GP (HV actually told me that as she is not a doctor she cannot say my DS is ok).

I didn't do that yet as he seems perfectly happy to me. He strains occasionally but does not seem in pain.

I read here on MN about demerara sugar so gave him that - about 20ml (a teaspoon dissolved in about 40ml) last night and same this morning. No poo. Boiled some oats and tried giving him the liquid - he won't take it.

So my question is- should I wait, take to GP or try some other recipes? If so- do you have any suggestions re what I can give him.

Thanks a lot.
