A. after introducing weaning food and complementary food it is important to see that the foodz you have introduced should not cause constipation or gas formation in the child. it is important to introduce fiber diet and plenty of water for the child in the form of pulses cereals vegetables and fruizts. you can add papaya pear oats which will help in decreasing the chances of constipation. Give plenty of water to drink if the problem continues your doctor will add constipation medicine like polythene glycol.
