I agree give water.... in my culture we hardly give babies banana because it tends to make the stool hard... don't know if it's true but I best avoid... early in the morning we give water mix with honey... this helped in digestion n passing stool easily... in rectum I apply pure yellowish Vaseline which cost 200 rupees instead of doctors medicine... these are just a few things I learnt working in a children's home... wanted to share... all the best... everything will be ok...

hi, after starting semi solid once my son didn't pee for four hours, then I understood water is important. if you had not introduced water than it will be better consult your pedc for starting it. I have increased the level of water in whatever I use to prepare for him, secondly, I use to add my expressed BM to his food and still I am continuing same practice. Hope any of my scenario helps you.
