Q.

#asktheexpert My son is 6+ months old. I have just started introducing semi solid food to my baby. He is reluctant to eat. I tried feeding him mashed rice with mashed potatoes and carrots. He is having constipation for three days and is unable to pass motion. He is passing gas. Can the medicine Tummy soft be given to him in this case?

A. Hi mom Some babies they take time to adjust to solid food. so no need to worry. keep trying. if ur baby is rejecting one food offer the other variety of food. Once ur baby completes six months then u can give cerelac, daal ka pani, ripe banana, apple puree, ragi porridge, pumpkin puree etc as the first food. Secondly start giving water to ur baby to get relief from constipation. also give mashed papaya as natural laxative
