We Indians are obsessed with motions.
It's NOT important to pass a stool every day,BUT it's important that the consistency of stools be soft and formed,even if passed after 2-3 days.
Add high fiber items in the diet like cornflakes,Dalia,salads,green leafy vegetables and fruits like mango,oranges,apples and pears and cheeku.
If at any time you feel child has abdominal distension or vomiting,consult your paediatrician,otherwise RELAX!
