Constipation

2022-03-22 11:36:38
My 11 months old baby boy (weighs about 10 kgs)  passes hard brown stool every day from last few months. We tested his stool reports came normal. No blood in it. Nothing wrong in it . He is not on iron supplements. I give him adequate water and I include enough fruits and vegetables in his diet. Also I give him whole grains, pulses, lentils, vegetables like beans, beetroot, sweet potato, broccoli, carrot. Fruits like ripe banana, apple with skin on, he eats every fruit. He has meals 3 times and fruits in the afternoon as snacks. He drinks BM 2-3 times a day. I am worried thinking about his hard stools. Please suggest me what to do.

His weight is fine. Just hard stools is nothing to worry about. Does he have any symptoms ? Give a probiotic like econorm sachet 1 per day if the only complaint is little crying while passing stools
