A. Constipation is quite common in babys less than one year of age No need to worry for this Give tummy times frequently in a day time Do massage everyday and specially tummy massage more. breast Feed ur baby as per demand It will help Burp properly at least 10 min or till baby take 4 burp Keep hydration well Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day If baby is feeling discomfort and crying inconsolably then Need to do rectal stimulation, apply some drops of oil over rectal area It will help If it doesn't help then Need rectal glycerine enema Or some laxative for which u need to visit once with pediatrician. aka

A. hii...There are several ways to massage a baby’s stomach to relieve constipation. These include: Using the fingertip to make circular motions on the stomach in a clockwise pattern. Walking the fingers around the naval in a clockwise pattern. Holding the baby’s knees and feet together and gently pushing the feet toward the belly. Stroking from the rib cage down past the belly button with the edge of a finger.
