   As above, apple, prune, peach, pear, white grape juices are all good for the bowels. Bear in mind though that if the baby is under 6 months she won’t be able to take anything more than tiny medicinal doses.
   The only genuine folk-remedy I know is the homemade soap-suppository described above. That’s the surest thing to use if she is in pain and/or hasn’t “done” for three or four days – almost guaranteed to make her do a smelly in under 20 minutes!

   I suggest you first try to discover the exact cause of the constipation before trying a remedy.
   A good remedy is adding natural fibers like prune juice.
   Most experts agree that mother’s milk is still the best formula for babies.

   suppositories… you can buy it aat the store.. or you can just make your own at home.. wet a bar of soap, and cut off a slither (very skinny, small piece) of the soap and insert it into the baby’s poopie hole.. guaranteed to work every time.. no matter how young or old the infant/newborn is

   I used karo syrup, just a glob of it in some water in his bottle. Worked wonders! He was about 2 months old when we did this. His digestive tract matured and he hasn’t had any problems since he was about 5 or 6 months old.

   How old is the baby? I would say prune juice or prune baby food (if he’s already eating baby food). However, start with just a LITTLE and slowly offer more if it’s not working every few hours.

   increase fluids if the little one can have juice give apple juice and if he/she is eating baby food prunes just the small jar should do

   How old is the baby? That would change how you should handle it.

   I used to boil water with some fennel seeds or a bay leaf. It always worked.
