A. hello dear parent... initially I faced this problem with my kid... don't worry try to get him done on Indian toilet because that will make him try to get rid of passing stool without fear or else place Potty tray with making him sit on 2bricks in Indian toilet posture then he will automatically on Western it will take time but once that fear is gone he will get habituated.... give him lots of liquids and warm water n rasam like liquid food....

A. do it gradually over time. constipation is very common in babies most of the times due to less intake of water and liquids better to give fibre diet like green leafy vegetables and seasonal fruits to the baby to avoid constipat
