A member asked:
My baby is 6 months old. he is so constipated. motion is coming out very thickly and he is struggling a lot. is there any home remedies. please advice?

Constipated baby: Introduction of new formulas or foods can result in constipation. Once hard stool is formed, treatment often involves clearing the present stool with a pediatric glycerin suppository or Fleets enema. Prevention involves increasing free water or juice intake, or using prescription stool softeners such as lactulose.
