Howdy girls, I started DS on solids at 5 months, just vegies and some fruits then at 5.5 months I added some oats and brown rice (not iron fortifed I made it myself). Anyway DS has had some problems at different times passing his poops and I'm not sure if I'm giving him something that isn't that good for him or if there are other things I coudl give him to help. I read in another thread that cooked apple and banana can be constipating both of which I've given a few times. I started giving him a sippy cup about 2 weeks ago and thought that the extra water could really help. I'd say that he'll be drinking about 130mls a day from now on as yesterday and today I've offered it to him throughout the day he LOVES it. So far I've been feeding him sweet pot, pumpkin, carrot, beans, zuchini, avo, pear, peach & apple. Yesterday I gave him beetroot and today mango and I plan to introduce squash, brocoli & cucumber over the next week. Any help and thoughts woudl be appreciated... I also wondered if I should give the oats and rice a rest but then think he might get hungry? Should I have introduced the water sooner? TIA

Oh about a week and a half ago I also started adding 1/2 a tsp of organic dark grape juice to his oats or rice to help move things, I thoguht that was working but then today he had trouble again
