Consipation question when starting solid food
So the rice cereal seems to be binding DD a little, so we started givign her oatmeal 4 days ago. DD was a "great pooper" going at least once a day. Now since starting the cereal is getting a little backed up and going every other day to every 2 days. How long is too long to go between poops? When would you call the ped?

Re: Consipation question when starting solid food
Try feeding her prunes or putting an oz of prune juice into her bottle (if she takes bottles.) DD was a bit backed up when we started solids, but the prunes helped her out.
Peaches can have the same effect as well.
