A. whenever you introduce food for the child and it is causing constipation you have to stop that particular food which is causing such problems and try to give food which is more rich in fibre and has got plenty of fluids. it is important to add papaya in the diet which will help in decreasing this problem and also at the same time see that you are not giving any newd outside milk which is agafin known to cause constipation Medicine is to be given only if constructed by the doctor after examination.

A. If your baby seems constipated, consider simple changes to your infant's diet: Water or fruit juice. Offer your baby a small amount of water or a daily serving of 100% apple, prune or pear juice in addition to usual feedings. These juices contain sorbitol, a sweetener that acts like a laxative.Talk to your health visitor if you think your baby has constipation. You can help your baby by lying them on their back and gently moving their legs as if they're riding a bicycle. If you're feeding them baby formula, you could try giving them a little cooled, boiled water between milk feeds.Water or fruit juice. Offer your baby a small amount of water or a daily serving of 100% apple, prune or pear juice in addition to usual feedings. ... Baby food. If your baby is eating solid foods, try pureed peas or prunes, which contain more fiber than other fruits and vegetables.
