Constipation and hard stools

Question

Asked for Female, 1 Years

My baby girl is five and half months old. We started feeding her banana and rice rawa with one vegetable daily since 3 weeks. She is not having regular bowel movements and crying so much while passing stools from 1 week. I stopped everything and just giving cerelac rice cereal one time a day and breast milk and formula milk to her as my milk supply is low. She has passed hard stools again today after 5 days. Please let me know how to cure her constipation and how to make her stools soft. Also what should I feed her other than milk?
