my hv advised me to use oj in water when lo was constipated, so i would have thought abit in food wont be bad.
do you mean those little yogurts? if so yes you can they say on them from 4months plus. I have given my little one them since about 22 wks, and had no [problems what so ever

I think they say to avoid dairy before 6 months cos of allergies, but if there are none in your family petit filous should be ok. It's up to you really.
Also OJ in food will be ok, as long as not much. The vitamin C will help him absorb the iron too. You could also offer him sips of water from a cup when feeding him solids.
Ive just done a weaning class and was told-no citrus until after 6months but i think a little diluted down with water would be fine to relieve constipation, it's not the same as eating an orange or something!
No dairy until after 6months, so that includes yoghurt,i think petit filous are quite high in sugar so i'm going to avoid then for a few more months yet
I've the exact same reponse as Bumbelina
HV advised a bit of OJ diluted with warm water for constipation & we started weaning at the same time as Bumbelina too and Niamh has been fine with petite Filous.
