Question

A friend’s baby is a bit constipated. What should a child with constipation eat?

Answer

I’m glad to help you with your question. First, I wish your baby a speedy recovery! Let me tell you about “infant constipation” below. Infant constipation is a common condition. It is recommended to drink more water and appropriately increase the amount of fruits like bananas, watermelons, and apples in your baby’s diet. You can also try abdominal massage to help with gastrointestinal motility and promote defecation. If these methods still do not work, you can try probiotics. Wishing you and your baby good health and beauty!
