My baby eats about 1/3cup or rice cereal every day. Prior to this she was exclusively breastfed and pooped about every two to three days which we know is normal.
Since starting the cereal a couple weeks ago her pooping is still every three days and the amount seems to be less than usual.
I’m worried she’s getting constipated.. Anyone else experience this and talk with their docs about it?

Our son is going through the same thing. His stool was harder less watery more like clay. We give him a little water after each meal and it helped him.

My daughter wa the exact same. I bought some prunes and guava to her. Now she’s pooping everyday.

Gave to her*
I just rehydrated the dried prunes and puréed it.

Omg my baby poops like 5 times a day!

My guy is EBF and he typically pooped every 2-3 days with milk. Now it’s about every 3 days with thicker stool also. I’m going to talk to my doctor at the 6 month check up to see what he suggests!
