A. It is common for bowel movements to slow down after diarrhea, especially if your daughter was on medication or had an infection that irritated her digestive system. Here’s what you can do to help: 1. Hydration Ensure she is drinking enough fluids like: ✅ Water ✅ Coconut water ✅ ORS solution (if needed) ✅ Soups or buttermilk 2. Fiber-Rich Foods Include soft, easy-to-digest foods: ✅ Fruits: Banana, papaya, pear, prunes ✅ Vegetables: Boiled carrots, pumpkin, spinach ✅ Whole grains: Oats, dalia, soft roti ✅ Curd: Helps restore gut bacteria 3. Massage & Movement ✅ Gentle tummy massage in circular motions to stimulate bowel movements ✅ Encourage light activities like crawling or walking (if she is old enough) 4. Monitor for Signs of Discomfort 🚨 See a doctor if: She has severe bloating, vomiting, or pain The stool is too hard or painful to pass She has fever or reduced urine output If she remains constipated for more than 4-5 days, consult a pediatrician for further advice.
