Question
A nine-and-a-half-month-old baby has been experiencing very dry stools for the past week, with frequent but small amounts of bowel movements, accompanied by a trembling sensation, but no feces have been passed. She still produces small amounts of dry stool each day. Is this constipation? How should it be handled?

Based on the description, this could be constipation. It is recommended to add some coarse grain complementary foods, use rectal suppositories for a short period, take oral probiotics to adjust the intestinal flora, or switch to formula milk that contains more probiotics.
