ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist3 years agoA. dear mum, to relieve constipation for your baby, it is important to include fibrous food like variety of seasonal vegetables, green leafy vegetables and fruits, carrot cucumber , beetroot, papaya, apple, peach banana, prunes
whole fruit is better than fruit juice
grated and soaked dry fruits Like black currant , prunes, date , figs, nuts like almond, walnut
give whole grains like daliya, whole pulses, beans, sprouts
avoid refined grains, biscuits and frequent use of bread
breastfeed child for enough fluid intake if you are still breastfeeding , also boiled and cooled water intake
good fluid intake in form of water buttermilk coconut water
encourage at least one hour of outdoor play as physical activity relieves constipation
