Constipation
posted 26th Feb
DS (14 months old) has been having bad constipation issues lately. Every poop he is struggling and every change he is screaming like he is in the worst pain ever.
Up until recently he drank a lot of different things. Watered down juice, plain water, and milk. Now he will only drink his milk. I'm sure this is contributing if not totally causing his horrible constipation. How do I get him to drink other stuff? We have sippy cups out with juice and water and that he has access to so he can drink when he wants but he will barely drink anything
Would it be ok for me to water down his whole milk to help? Or would that defeat the purpose of the whole milk?

I always water down LO's whole milk. If not she can't poop without assistance.

Ok good. I just didnt know if it would mess with the fat in the whole milk.
