Our girl is 3 months old in a few days and recently she's been suffering from constipation. She usually has a bowel movement every 3/4 days (she's formula fed) but this week she's been clearly struggling and when the bowel movement comes out it's completely solid. She's been slowly feeding less because of this as well. The GP prescribed lactulose to give her in the evenings however when I've googled it I see nothing but horror stories about really painful wind, refusing to feed or it just not working so now I'm really hesitant. I'm a first time mum so I really have no experience with any of this, my heart's breaking too because she was such a smiley happy baby and I'm not sure what's changed, she was fine on her formula beforehand and consistently had normal bowel movements until last Monday. The health visitor said not to give her water as it's not recommended anymore but I'm hesitant to try the lactulose as I don't want to make her even more miserable! Has anyone had a good experience with it? I can't see anything but bad experiences and even some articles recommending against it because of her age.
