Hello, 5 month old baby, no stool for 4 days. I know it's normal, but discomfort
Don't want prune juice. I tried to give a little water + massage. Do you have any tips? pear juice, apple juice?

Good morning, ma'am,
You did the right thing by encouraging him to drink more fluids, especially with an extra glass of milk or formula.
I also suggest that you give him some 'exercises': on his back, you can bend his knees towards his chest and make him simulate the movement of pedaling. Below 7 days of constipation, no need to worry.
I invite you to check out the link from Birth and Growth for more details, it's a very useful resource!
