Question

My six-month-old baby hasn’t had a bowel movement for five days. How should I deal with this?

Answer

If a baby’s bowel movement interval is less than 48 hours, it can be considered constipation. The initial solution can be to feed some rice porridge, which usually resolves this constipation issue. If necessary, you can also give the baby some orange juice, jujube juice, or bok choy juice. If these methods are not effective, it is recommended to consult a doctor for professional advice.
