Interesting that the specialist is blaming breastmilk for the
constipation, since many mothers I know report the opposite experience.
Breastmilk is laxative at any age! Your post doesn't mention if this
particular child is 1. chronically constipated, for instance since the
introduction of solids, 2. weaning, and therefore getting less breastmilk
and perhaps a higher proporttion of cow's milk instead 3. has other
allergy symptoms 4. just learning to toilet and holding on to bm's--so
this would be more behavioral. Can you provide any more details?
