#AskTheExpert my son is 5 month 10 days old. he used to poop daily or alternate earlier but now from last 15 days, I can see him pooping once a week. is this ok ?

A. Constipation in Babies less than 1 year is very common and more in formula fed babies and also when initially the semi solid food gyhas 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 avoided before 1 year of age . Medications are required but it should be given only in medical supervision .
