Q.

My 8 months baby is constipated all the time, he doesnt pass stools naturally, since a month now everyday I give him Gudlax plus suggested by my pead. I am worried as to whether this medicine is safe to continue and how will the baby's constipation get resolved on his own. Because of constipation fear we only give 3 meals per day, oats, vegetable soup and prunes.
