Constipation in children is more related to lifestyle choices than pathological if it’s recent and is not since birth . If the child is having bloated abdomen and unable to eat properly due to constipation she might require an Enema to relive herself in the short run .
Next Steps
Concentrate on giving her more fiber in diet
Greens
Fruits instead of fruit juices
Fruits like apple and pear
Plenty of fluids orally
Avoid processed foods
Homemade foods only
Weaning period and toilet training period maybe associated with constipation
