What can i do if my 6 month old baby is constipated.

Increase fluids...: Trying to increase his fluids (prune or apple juice works well) is probably the best bet for helping him with his constipation. If he doesn't like juices, water is fine also. If this doesn't help, i would talk with his doctor. He made need some sort of medication.
