My son has been constipated since he was born he's 9 months old

also iron makes you constipated too. so maybe too much iron or his formula may need to be cahnged. my daughter was the same way so I changed her formula and now she is wonderful . she is on the similac isomil soy milk for sensitive tummies.

My daughter is chronically constipated and I give her Miralax. She’s 7 so I give her 1 1/2 capfulls a day, but since your son is 9 months old then I would give him about 1/2 a capfull in whatever he is drinking a day.

Hi may have an enlarged colon. My baby brother has one and your son’s case sounds very similar. Mild laxatives, a diet with fibre and mineral oil (for lubrication, it’s taken orally) might help him. Good luck.

warm baths help, and massage with two fingers on both sides of his belly button to get muscles down there working, if this does not hurt him. Apple juice, Prune Juice or Pear works too.

how old is your son??

can you discribe the color of the poo??is it always the same color??also is it a bunch of hard rounded pieces??or is it just one piece?

what do you feed him usually??

does he cry painfully during defecat???does his face turn red or somthing??

when hr drinks dairy (milk-yogart..etc)does he have any abdominal pain??

this may seem weird…I know I thought it was weird when my daughter’s pediatrician told me… when you make his next bottle, mix in a a teaspoon of corn syrup. if it doesn’t help within 6 hours, do it again. it helped my daughter shortly after her 1st bottle w/ the corn syrup. good luck!

Yeah Apparently Prune Juice Really Helps. Good Luck x

poohbear is perfectly right. I have 5 bros and 2 sisters. this ALWAYS works.

I know thhis sounds nasty but try prune juice diluted wit sum water for 2 parts water giv 1 part juice and that shd help

Lactose Intolerant- cant drink milk or any dairy product

Hi, is your son still constipated? My son is the same since birth and I have tried everything. If you are solution please help. Thank you.
