my 3 months old baby is constipated. what should I do

A. Dehydration is the most common cause of constipation in babies. If in doubt you can add a water drink as an extra to their diet. ' Always add enough water to your formula milk, and if they are eating solids, then offer your baby a little water with the food to help digestion.Gently move your baby's legs in a cycling motion — this may help stimulate their bowels. Gently massage your baby's tummy. A warm bath can help the muscles relax (your baby may do the poo in the bath, so be prepared).Infant constipation often begins when a baby starts eating solid foods. If your baby seems constipated, consider simple changes to your infant's diet: Water or fruit juice. Offer your baby a small amount of water or a daily serving of 100% apple, prune or pear juice in addition to usual feedings.
