Ava is 6 months old and has been on solids for 3 weeks or so now. She was getting slightly constipated so i made sure she drank diluted prune juice etc.

Anyway, today she had
Breakfast - apple with prune juice (watties range)
Lunch - Green beans (nutricia range)
Dinner - Farex with pears.

Have i overdone the high fibre foods and that is why she had diarrhea?

OR could it be the green beans? This is only her second day trying green beans and yesterday she only had a teaspoon worth.

It may just be her system getting used to the new stuff. If it was me, I'd probably limit the green beans again for a day or two and see if it makes a difference, then gradually increase them . But I really don't know.

I would think its the Watties apple with prune juice. We had the same problem with Dominic on that one, I think they put too much prune juice in. They really only need a 1/4 teaspoon.
