Hi, just wondering does anyone know about giving a 1 month old the syrup off prunes for constaption, or to keep bub regular if he hasn't been for a few days? Was given some info from MCHN and it stated that you could take 6 pitted prunes, cover in water and simmer until it became to a syrup, then store in fridge and use a teaspoon if required. I was thinking about diluting it again in water.

I'm a first time Mum, and new to Belly Belly, my son was born a month ago. He is formula feeding, and seems to be hungry alot! I was suggested by family to put some Farexs in his bottle?? Not exactly sure what it is and how this works, and is it okay for a 1 month old? Just changed formula recommened by MCHN to see if it would keep him fuller for longer. He was just under 6lb when born and now 8lb 3oz!!! Putting on lots of weight, MCHN says I'm feeding him too much!!! It's all new to me!
