Accepted Answer

at this age the child should pass stool regularly.
if the consistency is hard and the child is having pain while passing stool it is considered as constipation.
give plenty of water and fibre diet to the child
it is important to give fibre diet from cereals pulses vegetables and fruits
avoid giving moxre than 400 ml milk everyday and avoid giving packet and processed foods as well as biscuits and refined food
adding pzapaya , fennel seeds water , oats peasr prunes pineapple banana kishmish to the regular diet will help in decreasing constipation.

Accepted Answer

Your child is two years in totally on breastfeeding than that steps something beyond my understanding so can you please re-post your question to clear my doubt if your child is on breastfeeding but your child is two months if I am connecting myself in the question then that’s completely normal for a child to be constipatedWrite Your Answer Here
