Constipation

I started to give my 6 months old baby solids, he was fine in the beginning, but for last week he is only passing poo like tiny chicken nuggets, his face is getting red when he is pushing. I tried prune purée, massage, drinking more fluids, warm bath, but nothing is helping. Is this normal or shall I seek medical attention. Otherwise he seems fine. I am still breastfeeding 🤱

That is completely normal don’t stress yourself. As long as he isn’t crying or is extremely uncomfortable then he’s fine. My baby was fine for the first few weeks and then all of a sudden he didn’t poo for like a week. Now since being on solids he only poos once every 3 days. He’s fine. His body is getting used to having solids.

You could try pear puree too but if he’s in pain I’d probably go and see the GP and they can prescribe some lactulose for him.

@Oliwia thank you ☺️
