Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. straining while passing stool as well as urine is normal.
the child is crying due to colic pain (due to gas) and not due to the reason that the child has not passed the stool.
infants may not pass stool for 10 days also and if the consistency of the stool is semi solid to solid it is not constipation. you can consider constipation only if it is hard and dry stools.
you can give anticolic medixcines and meet your doctor.
burping / upright position for 20 minutes will help in decreasing the gas and future colic pain

A proper skin care is also very important where you should use a good moisturizer for the baby like senosun lotion or physiogel . Soap of the baby should also be mild which should not cause any dryness .
Make rethe child wear proper clothes also which should cover the child in a proper way to avoid exposure to cold.
You should also give vaccinations like flu and other required vaccinations to protect against different seasonal diseases .
