A. after introducing weaning food and complementary food it is important to see that the food you have introduced should not cause constipation or gas formation in the child. it is important to introduce fiber diet andd plenty of water for the child in the form of pulses cereals vegetables and fruits. you can add papaya pear oats which will help in decreasing the chances of constipation. Give plenty of wdater to drink if the problem continues your doctor will add constipation medicine like polythene glycol.

A. You can only start giving food to the child after completing the age of six months not before that and constipation is common after that so I would just recommend you that you should not give food before completing the age of six months and when you start give good amount of water as well
