Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many where the most important causative factor is decrease intake of fiber rich diet along with lesser fluid intake.
some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such condition.
Here the diet modification should be tried first so encourage fibre diet give fruits and vegetable . Avoid ehxcess of cows or buffalo milk and fmaida containing food .
Medications like lactulose , milk of magnesia and Peg (muout ) powderare used .
In emergency situation soap water with finger stimulation in rectal area and glycerine suppository can be tried .

Shaista TarannumMom of a 16 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. constipation in babies is quite common..
Give lots and lots of fibre rich foods. give more of green leafy vegetables and fruits. give pear fruit. give boiled corn regularly. give more water. avoid too much sugary stuff and maida biscuits.
If your baby has completed 6 months of age then you can soak a few raisins in the water in the night. In the morning just give a few teaspoons of the raisin water to the baby.this helps relieve constipation.
there is a drink called Ovaltine that you can make by mixing with milk. its chocolate flavour. just like bournvita or boost. If your baby has completed 2 years give that regularly for a few days. all these helped my son when he had severe constipation.
