What can I do

Question

Not sure what to do. My daughter has tried whole milk and got extremely constipated from it so they switched it to soy milk and she’s still constipated. We tried prune juice didn’t work. She doesn’t even drink milk like that maybe 12 oz a day she enjoys drinking water so she’ll mostly have that since it’s hot outside anyways. Is there any other milk I should try? Or what should I do

Answer

I use rice milk. My baby wouldn't accept anything else. Both of his brothers would get severely constipated by even 8 oz of cow's milk, to the point that my middle one even bled pushing out poop. I was going to let my LO have a shot at cow milk, but he wouldn't accept it or any other alternatives besides rice milk. My pediatrician says he is fine on rice milk.

Answer

My oldest was like that, so we do coconut milk.
You can use constipation drops from Wellements, definitely get baby on a probiotic, and you can also try pear juice.

Answer

I give my kids ripple milk. It’s a brand of pea protein. To get calcium/fat in, you could also be giving her whole milk yogurt.

Answer

How long has it been since you started whole milk? It took my baby 1 week to not be constipated. She wasnt extremely constipated. I gave her 2-3oz if prune juice daily and she will poop after 5 min. She was pooping once a day for that week vs 2-3 times.
