#asktheexpert solution for baby constipation

1 Answer

A. For a 5-month-old baby with constipation, the solution depends on whether the baby is breastfed or formula-fed. Breastfed babies often go a few days without pooping and it can still be normal. If your baby seems uncomfortable, try gentle tummy massages, moving their legs in a bicycle motion, and giving them a warm bath to relax their bowels. If formula-fed, check with your pediatrician about possibly changing the formula. At this age, avoid giving water or juice unless advised by your doctor. If constipation continues or your baby has hard, pellet-like stools, straining, or pain, it’s best to consult your pediatrician for the safest treatment.
