ExpertDr. Pandurang sawantPaediatrician3 years agoA. Constipation is quite common in babys less than one year of age
No need to worry for this
Give tummy times frequently in a day time
Do massage everyday and specially tummy massage more.
breast Feed ur baby as per demand
It will help
Burp properly at least 10 min or till baby take 4 burp
Keep hydration well
Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day
If baby is feeling discomfort and crying inconsolably then
Need to do rectal stimulation, apply some drops of oil over rectal area
It will help
If it doesn't help then
Need rectal glycerine enema
Or some laxative
for which u need to visit once with pediatrician.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl3 years agoA. Its Just dehydration which is very common with kids are this is because they do not have too much of water and all which is why they suffered with constipation so you should give papaya to the child every day that’s one of the best things to deal with what is the patient on a regular basis and also tummy time is good if you want you can continue with that
