A. Hello ma’am The wait is still okay but if your child is doing poop like a pebble is that it could be due to the constipation issue that your child must be having so give good amount of water to your child to maintain hydration and also I would advise you to start giving papaya and prune juice to your child every morning and a teaspoon of honey with warm water right before the bedtime
