Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. Constipation in Babies less than 1 year is very common and more in formula fed babies and also when initially the semi solid food has been started after 6 months .
you can give bonnisan drops and some enzyme preparations in proper dose suggesthhged by doctor and cow's milk should be avoided before 1 year of age . Medications are required but it should be given only in medical supervision .

Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. 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 thatd 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 dwater to drink.
if needed the doctor will give polyethylene glycol which is the first line of medicine for constipation
