Hello Moms,

My baby is nine months old. He had been having good bowel movements. But for the past three to four weeks his stool is hard.Its like a lump. He is on solid diet but there is nothing that he is allergic too. At times his stool is absoultely normal. I am totally puzzles as to what is it that is not suiting him. Earlier I was giving him Ceralac now I have changed to Nestum. I give him khichri in the afternoon and daliya in the night. I give him mousmi juice. Can someone pls advise if I going wrong somewhere in my diet.

I look forward to your valuable suggestions.

Kind regards
Taru

Hi,

You should try giving him water. It appears the switch from Cerelac to Nestum can be a cause. Why did you switch brands? Was there any specific reason? Also, do not fret if he does not cry. If he is comfortable passing hard stools, it is just an aspect of growing up. Don' t worry too much.

RE:Baby cries while passing urine - Hetal pls advice
At the same time the child is feeling some pain So try to understand and consult a doctor.... - sharmasanvi [View Message]
RE:bowel movement in 2 week old infant
Some babies go through phases when they either can't use the muscles to empty their bowels or they "forget how to". In that case, it's safest keep using the suppositories daily to make them do a dirty in 5 minutes.... - Su 03 [View Message]
RE:where can I get laxative?
You can get either glycerin or bisacodyl suppositories in any Indian pharmacy - I recommend saving money by not buying child-size ones, instead cutting adult supps in half to make a child-size dosage.
(I have a daughter with long-term bowel issues: she can't "do" without them!)... - Su 03 [View Message]
RE:constipation
When the baby is in discomfort from constipation (especially if she hasn't done some dirty for two days or more), the first thing you should give is a glycerin suppository.... - Su 03 [View Message]
RE:hi
Most doctors say banana doesn't help - the potassium in it makes constipation worse. Remember you can make your own prune puree in a blender. Grape, grapefruit and papaya are also laxative fruits. And remember you can safely use baby suppositories as often as you need to (they also help with "training" the baby to do a dirty at the same time every day)... - Su 03 [View Message]

RE:Baby Movements/Development
Hi there please be calm and relax as it happens sometime the child takes little time to start walking or crawling also but in your case the child should have started crawling if not walking.... - Anita [View Message]
