Constipation

Baby has been on solids for almost 3 weeks and he is constipated. Little hard poop once every two days. I tried warm baths, sips of water, prune juice...nothing helped so far. Should I go to GP? He doesn't seem to be in pain

Could you do a couple of days without offering solids? Weaning didn’t a linear process. It’s fine to start, stop, start again.

It could just be that his bowels aren’t mature enough yet. Is he meeting the signs of readiness?

I found puréed pear and puréed prunes helped us (Ella’s kitchen pouch prunes are great). The I love you massage is great (it’s kn you tube). Miss a day or so to let his gut catch up.
