A. definitely you can offer water to the child at this age whenever you introduce food for the child and it is causing constipation you have to stop that particular food which is causing such problems and try to give food which is more rich in fibre and has got plenty of fluids. it is important to add papaya in the diet which will help in decreasing this problem and also at the same time see that you are not giving any new outside milk which is again known to cause constipation Medicine is to be given only if instructed by the doctor after examination. give plenty of water to drink. if needed the doctor will give polyethylene glycol which is the first line of medicine for constipation

A. Give more of liquids and water to the child and fibre is diet as well because when you start with semisolid food turning motion into green is completely normal hard motion is normal that’s mostly due to lack of water and fibre into the body
