How to relieve constipation in a 6-month-old baby?
1 week ago
My 6 month old baby has not passed stool for 3 days and cries while straining. What can I give to relieve it?

It is not uncommon for infants to experience constipation, but straining and crying for 3 days warrants attention.
You can try gentle tummy massages or bicycle leg movements to help stimulate bowel movement, but avoid giving any home remedies or medications without consulting a pediatrician first. Please consult a doctor to get appropriate guidance tailored to your baby’s age and diet.
