A. whenever you introduce food for the child and it is causing constipation you have to to tostop that particular food which is causing constipation and tried 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 constipation

A. A A lot of kids face constipation once you start giving them semisolid food that’s very very normal and common but you are and I would just like to tell you that a lot of times when you start semisolid food not sufficient water is taken by the child which is why kids end up having constipation so increase the amount of water into your child’s daily diet
