Try Pedialyte - he may be dehydrated.

Answer 3

Something with fiber. Maybe a cereal with a large amount of it.

Answer 4

Call your pediatrician...that is to young for some adult over the counter stuff.

Good luck

Answer 5

They make Benefiber for Kids.  I would suggest giving about a half teaspoon about 2 times a day for about a week then increase it to 3 times a day.  If that doesn't do the trick increase it to one teaspoon three times a day.

It's basically fiber so you can't really overdose on it.  I add it to my daughters milk and juice.  She even sees me add it and doesn't mind.

But yes, milk dud poos are gross.
