My baby is 5 weeks old now and she has difficulty passing stool. She cries a lot and the stool is very hard. What do I do to relieve her pain? I've been giving her colicaid drops and instazyme from the past 2 days. Please suggest what can I do for her to pass stool easily

A. the baby is only 5 weeks of age it is quite natural that small babies will be passing little bit hard stool since they will be taking only breast milk no need of any medicines it is self limiting
