I had to give my LO prunes every day for months. She liked them just puréed, but sometimes we mixed with yogurt too. Pears helped too. She has never been a big fan of juice either, but if I really want to get liquids in her she loves coconut water.

Bran muffins, flax seed, oatmeal and Greek yogurt and Culturelle for Kids (probiotic) all help.

Strangely enough, citrus fruits irritate he digestive track. I find that 1/2 cup of mandarin oranges are enough to help her go but not enough to increase the acidity to a point she gets diaper rash.

We did prunes and my ped also recommended oatmeal. DS's first food was actually at 4 months because he was super constipated and uncomfortable. I puréed prunes with breastmilk and he really liked it.

Pears, prunes.

DS loves prunes and dried fruit. He also eats granola for breakfast every morning for breakfast and has rarely been constipated except for times that he doesn't eat granola for a few days.

Apples and applesauce are almost as binding as bananas and cheese and rice, and apples and rice are really common ingredients in baby food, so maybe check that if you use any purees or mum mums or puffs. Avoid those and I second adding pears, prunes, and flaxseed. Ground flax can be sprinkled almost anywhere.

Fruits & veggies are full of fiber!!! I've heard the ones starting with "P" are best: peaches, prunes, pears, etc.

Also, sorry you're dealing with the poop thing!! Our LO went through it. It sucks to have that be a worry.
