A. Constipation in Babies less than 6 months is very common and more in formula fed babies. you can give bonnisan drops and some enzyme preparations in proper dose suggested by doctor and cow's milk should be avoided before 1 year of agegh

A. Hello It’s very normal when you introduce semisolid food to your child but yes you are giving good amount of water but kids do not accept good amount of water so try to give other liquids like buttermilk and coconut water as well to the child
