Now to avoid the medicine. PEG is better than lactulose for children because lactulose is common to cause watery stools.

Constipation usually chronic symptoms if hard stool is there. If this is for the first time you may stop lactulose. And if it is usually given at night. If this is not first time need to know detailed diet history and want to see the child.
Next Steps
For further queries you may book online consultation. Chronic constipation management is my speciality. And afterwards growth of the baby is optimal.
