A. Sure! Here’s a short and clear suggestion for your 10-month-old baby's constipation: At 10 months, constipation usually happens if the baby isn’t drinking enough water, eating low-fiber food, or suddenly changing diet (like new solids). To help: 1. Increase Water: Offer small sips of water frequently (especially after meals). 2. High-Fiber Foods: Give fruits like prune purée, papaya, pear, apple (steamed), and vegetables like pumpkin, spinach (well-cooked and mashed). You can also offer oats, ragi, and whole grain porridge. 3. Ghee and Warm Foods: Add a little ghee (1/4 teaspoon) to khichdi or porridge — it softens stools naturally. 4. Gentle Stomach Massage: Massage your baby’s tummy in a clockwise direction and move their legs gently (cycling motion) — this encourages bowel movement. 5. Avoid constipating foods for now: Like too much banana (raw), rice-only food, too much dairy (paneer, curd). Summary: Give water + fiber-rich fruits + little ghee Gentle tummy massage Be patient — it can take 1–2 days to improve If constipation is severe (hard pellet-like stool, blood in stool, or pain while pooping), better to consult your doctor — they might suggest a baby-safe stool softener.
