Feeding a 1 year old

posted 30th Jan
Okay so I know not much changes in their diet but ever since I put DS on whole milk he has been having hard poops. The dr said give him prune juice and more fiber. Well he eats oatmeal for breakfast everyday (he wont eat anything else), and for lunch he usually eats fruit like kiwi or bananas or apples etc. I normally give him 10oz of diluted apple juice but a nurse that works with his pedi said dont dilute it. For dinner he eats what we eat like tonight he has pork chops and corn on the cob.

He cries when he poops so the nurse said it was me giving him too much whole milk so limit it to 20oz and I do but they are still hard. So what am I doing wrong? This happened after he switched to whole milk.
Also I slowly switched the milk I added more to his formula every week until his first bday he got his first full dose of it.

You can try some pear juice. Make sure he is getting a lot of fluids. That can help loosen things up. If things don't get better go back to your dr and see what else they suggest.

My DD gets 1/2 c of whole milk with all 3 meals, and has water or juice at her snack times but her bedtime snack she gets 1/2 cup of milk then bed.

That is the recommended whole milk a day for 12-24 months of age. And she has water in her cup or juice at all times in the day but rarely drinks it.

Her meals are

7am breakfast
9am snack
11:45 lunch
3:30snack
5:30 dinner
7pm snack


When DD is.constipated I give her 1/2 c of apple juice and within 2 hrs she is good

Prune juice made him poop alot and gave him a bad rash too. I give him apple juice and they said water but he wont drink it so I try to give him lot of diluted juice (1oz juice 9oz water)

My DD has has had the same problem recently it got worse. I took her to the er Christmas Eve because I swear to God her little booty hole was going to tear   it was so fcking traumatizing man. We've changed her diet, eliminated things, added things. We give her as much water as she'll drink and diluted juices. They told us to try Miralax as our last resort, it seemed to work and I was desperate. I really hated giving it to her and have since stopped. Her poop is slowly starting to get harder and she's starting to have to push really hard again. I'm not much help   we do use glycerin supposetories tho and I like to think it helps a little :/ We were told to cut out the baby cereals in the morning and no bananas. Also 100% peach or apricot juice? Which is like pretty impossible to find so we get a peach v8 and dilute it. I'm seriously considering investing in a juicer so we can make our own hah. I hope someone has some good info on this ! Good luck to your baby boy. It's the worst to see them struggle with that and be so helpless. I was in tears and panic mode the few times it was REALLY bad and I had to try and remove her poop myself :/ good luck mama !
