Constipation, uncontrollable crying
I need help
I don’t know what to do
We stopped formula and went to whole milk at 12 months and she liked the taste of it so I didn’t think I needed to mix half formula half milk if she liked the taste already.
We started 3 meals a day and snacks in between
She has been uncontrollably crying the whole day. She acts like she’s trying to poop, face turns red and she starts crying. I’ve tried everything under the sun to help. You name it; I’ve done it.
Should I have switched so fast? How did you guys transition to whole milk and solids without such constipation and fussy baby? It’s breaking my heart so much to see her cry this much
When my baby was constipated and crying while trying to go, we had to go to the doctor and they gave her Pedia Lax and she pooped within minutes. After that doctor recommended 1/4 cap of miralax everyday because they didn’t want her to associate pain with pooping. I did every other day and she was going fine and I also started adding flax seed to her oatmeal and she’s been regular for a couple weeks now.
