Try foods like pears, peaches, prunes to help with constipation. The rice cereal can be very constipating and so can banana & apple. My LO had to have a little prune/apple juice for a few months to help with it. You can also find a prune concentrate at walgreens or cvs that has prebiotics that we found helpful.

Don't worry it happens! My LO is 18 months and all I have to do is give him a bit too much banana (he could eat them forever) and he is constipated. Definitely try all the P fruits that JHD mentioned, my LO won't eat prunes but we find peach purée works well

I had this exact same problem when DD2 started solids. I did a bunch of p foods, water, even diluted prune juice, bicycles, belly massaging rtc. The magic combo for us was steel cut oatmeal with flaxseed and plain Greek yogurt. And prune purée. Guaranteed poop within the hour.

In general I avoid giving her carbs/grains. Very minimal.

I had this issue too. I have to give DD prunes everyday. I second PP's comments about lots of P foods and water and go easy on bananas, apples and rice cereal.

I would stop the cereal at least until he's not constipated, but even consider stopping it all together.

Sweet potato, prunes, and pears helped my LO. And both times she was really constipated a warm bath, filled to her nipples seemed to make her go. It was messy (bath poops are never fun!) but I was just so happy to see poop I didn't care! Good luck!
