adding papaya , fennel seeds water , oats pear prunes pineapple banana kishmish to the regular diet will help in decreasing constipation.

Answer

Hello dear parent! Bananas and apples are good for digestion and reducing constipation. Give them to your baby daily. Increase the liquid intake and fibre intake. Serve healthy foods in cute Babyhug stainless steel bowls and plates to encourage healthy eating. Consult your child’s doctor for evaluation and advice.
