My DD is 7.5 months old. We've been doing BLS with her so her intake of solids has increased really slowly. First we just saw pieces of whatever she'd eaten come back out along with the normal bm poo. In the last three days her body seems to have started processing the food more and her poos have got much more solid (still soft, but thicker iykwim?). She's really straining and struggling the whole time, she's done 15 poos in the last 48 hours, but they've all been tiny. She has a lot of wind too.

I mixed a bit of prune juice in with her water but she wasn't impressed by it so in the end I tipped it away and gave her water again so she would continue to drink. I've also rubbed her tummy, bicycled her legs sat her in a warm bath and encouraged her to move around lots, but nothing seems to have helped. She seems to be so uncomfortable, I've lost could of how many times I've got up with her tonight and she writhes around and cries every time.

Is this normal? Is there anything else I can do to help her? We're both exhausted now and need a rest!

ETA: should I stop giving her solids and just give her bm until she poos properly?
