A. Babies often become constipated when they start solids, as their bodies learn how to manage new foods . Dehydration. Babies can become dehydrated much quicker than adults, particularly if they're not drinking enough, getting too warm, or ill with fever or vomiting .Puréed prunes, and prune juice are well known for their laxative effects due to a high content of fiber, sorbitol, and fructose. They can help with occasional constipation. The laxative effects of prunes can be quite potent for a baby's maturing digestive system, so offer it in moderation.
