A. Hello mom Constipation is very common in babies in such case you should start giving papaya regularly it will help baby to pass stool easily. You should also start giving 1 teaspoon of honey with warm water once in a day it will also help in maintaining babies digestion issues. If your baby is not taking sufficient water than you can start giving coconut water
