A. crawling can start anytime around 6 months of age. but many times it may come to the child by 12 months of age also. if the child is not having any other complaints no need to worry. it is advisable not to use walker and let the child play and make attempts on its own. give regular baby massage and diet and encouragement for tooth development and eruption the first important thing is that the child should not have deficiency of calcium and vitamin d. first tooth eruption can occur anytime between 6 months to 18 months of age. deficiency is there or not will be told by the doctor. there is no need to worry because many times the first tooth eruption may occur as late as 16 to 18 months of age also. so if your personal doctor is not worried then no need to worry from your side 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 thatd you are not giving any new outside milk which is again known to cause constipation Medicine is to be given only if instructed by the doctor after examdination. give plenty of water to drink. if needed the doctor will give polyethylene glycol which is the first line of medicine for constipation
