#asktheexpert Hello Doctor, my 3.5 years old boy is sometimes constipated and sometimes he has regular bowel movements. Is there any reason for that? or is there anything to worry?

A. hi dear If your baby seems constipated, consider simple changes to your infant's diet: Water or fruit juice. Offer your baby a small amount of water or a daily serving of 100% apple, prune or pear juice in addition to usual feedings. These juices contain sorbitol, a sweetener that acts like a laxative.
