That I can give LO to help soften his poo a bit?
He is 11 weeks today. Hes not constipated, but he seems to be having a lil trouble with pushing his poop out. Its not hard, but its not soft like it has been the past 10 weeks.

You can give him a little apple juice... that always helped my son with his constipation.

If he isn't constipated like you say and his poo is soft then I wouldn't give him juice. I would rub my sons belly in small circles all over and he would always poo right after.

That never worked for my LO, but I would definitely try it first before giving the juice.

Bicycling his legs too, you do it for gas usually. But anytime he had issues I would do it and he would always poop.

That never worked for my son. He would always cry so hard when he had to poop. He was never really constipated because he would go every day and it wasn't rabbit pellet looking, but his poops were really, really firm to the point that it would hurt him coming out.

That never worked for us either. Neither did gripe water. Gas drops worked okay, lucky for us he only had those problems for a week after switching from breast milk to formula.
