Prunes

TMI. Stop here if you don't want to read it. lol

Mr. Bean has always had an issue with constipation. I found that if he had at least 1c of juice (usually given watered down in two cups) every day it helped. The issue is that it's not always convenient to get him that much 100% juice every day. And I try not to give them juice that isn't 100%.. He gets as much fresh fruit as he'll eat too, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Yesterday I as buying more raisins for his oatmeal and saw the prunes. Now that he's almost 2.5 I decided he could prob eat them without it being a big choking issue so I spent the $2 to try it. He LOVES them. Yay! No 'results' yet (since it's only been about 5 minutes), but I'm excited for a more 'natural' solution to his medical dilema.
