My LO is 7 1/2 months old. I started him on rice cereal when he was 4 months then moved him to stage one baby foods at 6 months. Currently I feed him breastmilk in the morning with a fruit, breastmilk with a veggies and cereal about 4 hours later, breastmilk for the next 2 feedings each about 3.5-4 hours after the prior feeding then 2 ounces of formula, veggie or fruit and cereal for his last feeding. He wakes 1-2 times at night for a breastmilk feeding. I changed him from rice to oatmeal cereal. Basically since I introduced stage 1 foods, we have been battling constipation. Prunes work well to make him go but basically once I give him the prune for the next 2 days he goes like 4 times a day then by the 3 day he goes about 2 times but they are hard little balls. I am concerned with giving him prunes more often and making him poop so much, so I was hoping to get any feedback or suggestions from anyone who has dealt with this? Thanks!
