A. Hi, what does the diet of kid looks like? Are you giving enough fibres? Make sure you include fruits and green vegetables. Papaya, chikoo, Kiwi etc helps. Also, hope you are not giving cow milk? cow milk is one of the major contributors to constipation. For my son pediatrician asked to stop cow milk completely. Better to give formula along with breast milk till 2 years of age. Ask the doc and you can give Aptamil Gold stage 3 formula with prebiotics which helps in keeping the gut healthy and helps deal with issues like constipation

A. at this age the child should pass stool regularly. if the consistency is hard and the child is having pain while passing stool it is considered as constipation. give plenty of water and fibre diet to the child it is important to give fibre diet from cesreals pulses vegetables and fruits avoid giving more than 400 ml milk everyday and avoid giving packet and processed foods as well as biscuits and refined food adding papaya , fennel seeds water , oats pear prunes pineappzle banana kishmish to the regular diet will help in decreasing constipation.
