Is more breast milk an option? Nina -----Original Message----- From: Lactation Information and Discussion [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Rachael Austin Sent: Monday, October 22, 2007 12:14 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: How to relieve constipation in a formula fed baby? Any advice for a baby who has constipation because it is given artifical baby milk? :( I have suggested: *massage *goats formula instead of cows based formula *warm baths *warm bottle/cup of water Her MCHN suggested brown sugar, which didn't work.. surprise surprise. Not having really dealt with this problem I don't know what else to suggest.
