FTM - Baby is 5 months, formula fed and I express a little bit of milk which he also has every day. He normally has a poo every 1-2 days (poo is always soft and runny has never been hard) but is straining most days so I spoke to GP who prescribed Lactulose 5ml at night.
GP also said to replace one feed a day with freshly squeezed orange juice with water and to add 30ml more water in every feed so basically he’s having 150ml feed at a time (5 scoops of feed and 150ml water) but to only add 4 scoops of feed and 150ml water so the feed will be diluted. We have tried that for a couple of days and he’s been having a poo for 2 days in a row but didn’t go this morning.
Any other suggestions? Baby was still straining this morning 😕
