Question

Accepted Answer

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 that you are not giving any new outside milk which is again known to cause constipationc
Medicine is to be given only if instructed by the doctor after examination.
give plenty of water to drink. 
if needed the doctor will give polyethylene glycol which is the first line of medicine for constipation

Accepted Answer

That could be because you may not be giving sufficient amount of liquids and fibre to the child after starting solids for the child as it is very important to maintain proper proper hydration into the body of your child by giving liquids and fibre once you start giving solid food to the child
