A. Constipation in Babies less than 1 year is very common and more in formula fed babiesrtyy and also when initially the semi solid food has been started after 6 months . you can give bonnisan drops and some enzyme preparations in proper dose suggested by doctor and cow's milk should be arvoided before 1 year of age . Medications are required but it should be given only in medical supervision .

A. Treating your baby's constipation Give your baby a warm bath to relax their bowel. Gently massage your baby's tummy in a clockwise direction. Make firm but gentle circular motions from the belly button outwards. Lie your baby on their back and gently move their legs backwards and forwards in a 'bicycle' motion.
