Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. straining while passing stool as well as urine is normal.
the child is crying due to colic pain (due to gas) and not due to the reason that the child has not passed the stool.
infants may not pass stool for 10 days also and if the consistency of the stool is semi solid to solid it is not constipation. you can consider constipation only if it is hard and dry stools.
you can give anticolic medicineds and meet your doctor.
burping / upright position for 20 minutes will help in decreasing the gas and future colic pain
RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. Constipation in this age is very normal don’t worry about it it can work without pooping for 7 to 10 days also at a stretch and if they take feeding properly and urine output is good and there is definitely no problem in that
