Question

Can a 5-month-old baby use a laxative to help with defecation if they haven’t had a bowel movement for 4 days?

Answer

The baby may be constipated due to the introduction of solid food. It is recommended to stop giving the baby quail egg yolk, as this may cause constipation. Additionally, you can give the baby some honey water daily to help alleviate constipation, and the baby should improve soon.
