Constipation remedies for a non-solids baby

[Anonymous]

I just wanted to add that you should avoid suppositories at all costs, and save them for emergencys only. Your body can become dependent on them, and then she may not be able to poop without one. i would try things like brown sugar, miralax, mom, benefiber, etc before you resort to suppositories. good luck! the magnolox seems like its just like mom.

Yes, being a pharmacist, I have left suppositories as a last resort for Paige. Unfortunately she is intolerant of sugars, which I discovered after a horrendous trial of brown sugar and then lactulose. As well, benefiber has gluten, or wheat protein, so that is not an option I’m willing to try because Paige is severly MFPI. And unfortunately I can’t seem to get Miralax here, so our options are pretty limited!

Since starting Magnolax 4 days ago, Paige has had 1 BM on her own, for the first time in I can’t remember how long! But unfortunately she was constipated again last night and today, so we will likely have to play around with her dose. Hopefully it’s just a matter of finding the right dose to keep things moving for her.

Who knew that poop would become such a big deal!!!
