Prebiotics and probiotics
My 70 days old son has been suggested 'Fulflora dry syrup' for 20 days for digestion issue. He has been having gas trouble and used to put a lot of pressure trying to poop. He was suggested 2.5ml. My questions are:
- Do we need to mix powder in water or breastmilk. My son is exclusively breastfed.
- 6mg of powder is provided for 60ml. Should we prepare full 6mg in 60ml milk/water and give everyday or mix 2.5ml whenever needed?
- if full is to be prepared at once, should we store in fridge and give?

Constipation & blood in stool- 8 wk old
My baby is 8 weeks old. He didn't poop for 4 days and when he pooped today it was very thick and had a little blood in it. He vomitted few times aswell (3ce in 4 days). Is this something to be concerned about? He has had constipation previously also. He is breastfed majorly and formula fed 2ce at night since I take antidepressants and cannot feed him for 4 hours. The formula is mixed as per the guidelines. What can I do to help with his constipation? Is vomiting and blood in stool something to be worried about? Attached a pic of his stool where I saw a little blood.
