Hi, DS has been on solids for a few weeks and occasionally will go 2 days without a BM but then it will be quite runny as usual. However he hasn't had one for three days and the day before it was only a little one so I think he may be constipated - he's also not napping well at all, but he's never been a good napper anyway so hard to tell if it's related, although I just had it suggested on the EASY board that it might be discomfort, so I thought I'd try going down this track first... He has a new food every three days for breakfast, so we just had broccoli with pears (today was day 3), before that he had squash with apple, then with peach. (We find he won't eat veggies any more unless they're mixed with fruit!) So I'm guessing it might have been the squash with apple that's bunged him up? We've been giving him lots of pear, peach and pea for lunch and dinner, although often mixed with baby rice, so we've stopped that for today. He's due his next 'new food' tomorrow, so I'm thinking maybe prunes, probably with pear in case it's too strong by itself. My question is - if he doesn't have a BM today, should we just give him prunes for breakfast, lunch and dinner until he has one? Or only in the morning? I haven't heard that prunes can give bad reactions, but I've only been introducing new foods at breakfast up until now, just in case. He has eczema but I doubt prunes would set that off? He's currently having 5 breast feeds per day, including a dream feed. How many days without a BM before we ought to take him to a doctor? Really hoping he'll have one soon... TIA!
