8 an a half month adjust 7mo cmpa
Hi first time my posting! I’m at a loss with my girly. She’s almost 8.5 months old but adjust 7mo. When she was in NICU I kept swearing she had cmpa but came back negative.
Around 2mo she was seen by GI and +cmpa due to extreme gas and constipation. We tried…
(Prior was breast milk and enfamil preemie)
Nutrimagen - wouldn’t take much and kept spitting up bad.
Similac aliment. Ready to feed( really only likes ready to feed) Has been on since May and take feedings perfect but still constipation issues so she does probiotics every morning to help.
She started with microscopic blood again (non visible/card test) in August. GI had us try neocate powder. She hated it, barely took any!
GI and us(parents) decided risk was worth the benefit as she needs to eat and gain weight and we can try to just watch the constipation and manage.
We did start purées and she would have some constipation but with pear puree it helped a lot. She would still give us some good poops daily to every 1-2 days.
Lately idk why, she has been only giving us about a one or two small to medium size peebles a day. Not completely hard, but firm. And just isn’t like before. Idk what’s going on. She’s still doing the similac and now I’m scared to do purées again. Idk what’s to do and scared there’s something else going on… anyone else have this issue? Any recommendations? Thank you in advance!

So I’m off dairy, soy, corn, and egg due to suspected sensitivities. She was doing fine and then we started solids and we’ve been constipated a lot. My oldest went through this too. I don’t know if it’s the digestive system getting used to things or what. When we notice the struggles with pooping or we are just getting pebbles, we add in more of the “p” fruits (peach, pear, prune, etc).
I’m not a medical professional, but it seems normal, based on my experience with 2 thus far. I’d manage the constipation but keep exposing to foods (unless pediatrician says otherwise).
My baby will be 9 months in a week, he poops well when he eats purées 2-3 times a day but we tried chicken breast and it constipated him badly. So far that’s the only solid that we have observed that gets him constipated.
He’s also breastfeeding and supplements with Byheart baby formula.
