A. Cconstipation in Babies less than 6 months is very common and more in formula fed babies. you can give bonnisan drops and some enzyme preparations in proper dose suggested by doctor and cow's milk should be avoided before 1 year of age

A. Hi Please don’t worry about it it is completely normal because kids are completely on a liquid diet up till the age of six months which is why they’re passing urine properly about 10 to 15 times in a day and not passing motion in a day for about 5 to 7 days also then it is considered normal
