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

If baby is feeling discomfort and crying inconsolably  then

Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children4 years agoA. 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.
