Problem of child

2025-12-09 12:07:24
My 18-month-old baby hasn’t pooped for the last 3 days. Today is fourth day. He is active, eating normally and urinating well. This also happened last week and he passed stool after 4 days. What should I do this time? I am worried!

If passing hard stools everytime, you need to increase fibre in the diet. Reduce milk quantity to 2 times per day.
