Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. constipation is commonly seen in children in which diet modification needs to be done like including high fibres in the diet for which you can give seasonal fruits like papaya, watermelon and seasonal vegetables will also help you can give Daliya , oatsmeal also to your child which is rich in fibres and nutrients too.
giving excess of milk may also cause constipation, so you should limit its quantity.lactulose or polyethylene gllyycol is of good help, sorbilene is also an option but you should give any medicine or suppository only when prescribed by your pediatrician.. medication is the secondary option.diet modification is the key.plenty of liquids are of great help too.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl4 years agoA. Hi Yes your child is suffering with constipation so try to give a high rich fibre diet to the child also make sure that your child is having good amount of fluids it could be anything water lemonade buttermilk coconut water whatever your child likes to have and I cannot give you a proper schedule as such because after the age of one year you should feed everything that you prepared at home but he has fibrous diet and fluids are important to deal with constipation
